From @Woody’s output, the HOME_DIR and ORIG_HOME_DIR are listed as (NOT A DIRECTORY). I take this to mean that the directory was NOT created.

My Windows box reports “not a directory” too. On that machine it is because the constants are set to the old ‘Roaming’ path, not the actual new ‘Local’ folder.

@emyoulation

HOME_DIR  :    C:\Users\my_username\AppData\Roaming\gramps     (NOT A DIRECTORY)
ORIG_HOME_DIR  :    C:\Users\my_username\AppData\Roaming\gramps     (NOT A DIRECTORY)

Could there be a mistake in the routine that creates (or leverages the pre XDG path for upgrades) the Gramps User Directory in Windows? Where it decides the opposite (old) path when it should use the new path? The paths immediately below have a valid 'Local` in their breadcrumbs.

@Woody

HOME_DIR : C:\Users\stanw\AppData\Roaming\gramps (NOT A DIRECTORY)
ORIG_HOME_DIR : C:\Users\stanw\AppData\Roaming\gramps (NOT A DIRECTORY)
(NOT HIDDEN) USER_DATA : C:\Users\stanw\AppData\Local\gramps
(NOT HIDDEN) USER_CONFIG : C:\Users\stanw\AppData\Local\gramps

The LIB_PATH also claims that it is not a directory. But it IS showing Local. Maybe it wasn’t created?
