Hello
It is possible that .octavetrc remains in your Home directory (folder) and path
setting might be done
in it.
Please execute the following example
octave:15> tilde_expand('~')
ans = D:\usr\Tatsu
octave:16> dir D:\usr\Tatsu\.octaverc
.octaverc
octave:17> edit D:\usr\Tatsu\.octaverc
If '.octaverc' does not exit, I have no idea at the moment
*tilde_expand('~') reveals the HOME directory is your setting.
According ans = (PATH name), you should modify the above.
Regards
Tatsuro
