Hi Anze,
I'm not sure that this will work on Windows, but you can create a
function named ".First" (note the leading period) with something like
this:
.First<-function() setwd("C:/Users/anze")
To do this, start a session, enter the above line and then quit the
session, saving the current workspace. When you start R again, it
should change to that working directory. Of course you should make
sure what your home directory is.
