TinyTeX's `TEXMFHOME` configuration not deleted

Thanks! I just removed TinyTeX's TEXMFHOME configuration, so that it will just use TeX Live's default setting. This will be reflected in the next build of TinyTeX (which will hopefully be ready in about an hour). Or you can delete TEXMFHOME manually:

tlmgr conf texmf --delete TEXMFHOME

Then verify by

kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFHOME

Oddly, it returns ~/texmf instead of ~/Library/texmf on my macOS. I'm not sure if this is a bug, but you can definitely change it:

tlmgr conf texmf TEXMFHOME ~/Library/texmf

As shown in the screenshot, after I installed tinytex with scoop and after each update, the default location of TEXMFHOME became $TEXMFLOCAL instead of ~/texmf, which is the default location of texlive on Windows systems. Could you please make some modifications in install-windows.bat?

Start by reading install-windows.bat and reproduce the behavior with a Scoop installation followed by an update. Use kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFHOME to verify that the default resolves to ~/texmf rather than $TEXMFLOCAL after installation and updates.
