When an instruction contains a direction to type in " %user profile% " etc.
etc., what, in plain speech, is intended to be said ?

%userprofile% variable represents the path to your user profile path. Typing %userprofile% in Start, Run dialog directly opens your profile folder.

Similarly, to view other variables, type "cmd /k set" in Start, Run.
