How to get user homepath?

I want to get the user homepath in windows, the same as when I type '%homepath%' in the file explorer.

Example: 'C:\Users\USERNAME'

I am currently using this:

home_path = strrep(userpath,'Documents\MATLAB','')

but I'm afraid it might not work for all users depending on the way they installed matlab.

Is there a less 'hardcoded' way to get the user homepath in windows?

Does getenv do what you want?

Thank you! That's an improvement.
