for me that would be:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Subsurface\Subsurface
i couldn't find which part of the software sets it - e.g. is it
libgit2, is it subsurface?

for instance:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Subsurface
was the location of the default config file we defined in the GTK days.

it would be best if the app accesses only a single user path.
