Saving an empty 'empty.RData' image in my project directories when I start a
project is my preferred tactic. Always works independent of the physical
location.

Did you mean 'shortcut _to_'? That is, set up a shortcut somewhere like the
desktop that points to Rgui.exe but with different 'Start in:' values for each
project? Or literally a shortcut (probably with blank 'Start in:') in each
project directory? (Both should work)

This is indeed my most-hated way of doing this. It is very awkward when I move
to a different machine - which I do a lot when shifting between working at
work, working at home and working offsite on a laptop.
