3.1.3 Environment variables
makensis checks a number of environment variables that tell it where to locate the things it needs in order to create installers. These variables include:
- NSISDIR, NSISCONFDIR - Places where nsis data and config files are installed. NSISDIR alters the script variable ${NSISDIR}. See section 4.2.3 for more info.
- APPDATA (on Windows) or HOME (on other platforms) - Location of the per-user configuration file.
