Is there a way to use "%userprofile%" in ENV=PTC_WF_ROOT

I am using Creo Parametric 7.0 7.0.3.0

Is it possible to have the environmental variables for the Windchill cache to be written to set to the users documents using %userprofile%?
For example:
ENV=PTC_WF_ROOT="%userprofile%"\creo7\cache
ENV=PTC_WLD_ROOT="%userprofile%"\creo7\cache_wld
ENV=CREO_AGENT_HOME="%userprofile%"\creo7\agent

Would like it to be based on the user without having to explicitly enter the user name in the psf file. It would be setup in an install package that would be made available to our user community.

    Seems like it should work.  I do something similar from a startup script with the cache location, but it should work the same way in the PSF file.

     

    set PTC_WF_ROOT=C:\ptc\%USERNAME%\WC12_CP4_WGM
