Hardcoding the user's home directory on Windows breaks when the AppData\Roaming directory is moved. This also can cause issues on non-english systems.

You should pull the %APPDATA% environment variable. Anytime this is used in a domain environemnt with AppData\Roaming moved to a network share, it will break any application that uses it to store information there because it will either be denied access or it will end up on the C drive where it will not successfully roam with the profile.

EDIT: Reading from APPDATA is present in a roundabout way. Why is it not working on Windows 10? Does the OS identifier need to be updated?

appdata-path\lib\index.js:59
SyntaxError: Unexpected token )

module.exports = Object.assign( getAppDataPath, { getAppDataPath: getAppDataPath, default: getAppDataPath, }, );
Removing comma's at the end of the JSON object resolves the issue, but each time I add/remove a package the error is reinstated.
