The method for retrieving the path of your home directory may vary depending on the operating system you are using. Here are some examples:
On macOS and Linux, you can use the echo
command with the tilde (~
) symbol to retrieve the path of your home directory. Open the terminal and type: Flappy Bird
</p><p>echo ~ </p><p>
This should output the path of your home directory, such as /Users/illing
on macOS or /home/illing
on Linux.
On Windows, you can use the %HOMEPATH%
environment variable to retrieve the path of your home directory. Open the Command Prompt and type:
</p><p>echo %HOMEPATH%</p><p>
This should output the path of your home directory, such as \Users\illing
on Windows 10.
Alternatively, you can also use the %USERPROFILE%
environment variable to retrieve the path of your user profile directory, which is typically the same as your home directory. For example, on Windows 10, you can type:
</p><p>echo %USERPROFILE%</p><p>
This should output the path of your user profile directory, such as C:\Users\illing
.
