However, there are a few things that look suspicious such as errors displayed on the console that this version of GIMP keeps open as well as some missing folders based on comparison with the default startup. I need to do more analysis before commenting further but would appreciate learning more about these GIMP variables. Did I fail to find this information in the normal GIMP documentation sources or is this something known by those who interact with developers? It looks like fairly straightforward deduction to figure out the meaning/usage of GIMP_DIRECTORY but I can't say the same about HOME. Some elaboration might be helpful.
A good deal here:

On Linux man gimp tells everything. I don't know where the same info is hidden in Windows. Attached the output below.
