What is the alternative for ~ (user's home directory) on Windows command prompt?

Question

I\'m trying to use the command prompt to move some files, I am used to the linux terminal where I use ~ to specify the my home directory I\'ve looked everywhere

Answer 1

Just wrote a script to do this without too much typing while maintaining portability as setting ~ to be %userprofile% needs a manual setup on each Windows PC while cloning and setting the directory as part of the PATH is mechanical.
