Where are User Environment Variables %homedrive%, %homepath% set?

Hello Folks,

maybe someone here can help. In a Windows 2008 R2 (+Xenapp 6) Environment, when I set user environment variables via "Advanced Settings" - "Environment Variables" those settings are not set throughout the user session. For example: If I open a command prompt after setting the environment variables (f.e. %HOMEDRIVE% -> H: and %HOMEPATH% -> \) and execute the set command, the previously configured environment variables are not active. It still shows the old variables %HOMEDRIVE% -> C: and %HOMEPATH% -> C:\Users\name...

Even if I enter the environment varibale into Windows Explorer (f.e. %homepath%), it jumps right to the location of the old variable.

I even set the user environment variable via VBscript, which works quite nice (checked in "Advanced Settings" - "Environment Variables"), however if I try another set command, it still shows the old variables! Windows Explorer jumps to the old locations as well...

 

Any ideas?
