    The settings, caches and other files needed by KDE applications are stored in several default locations.
    Since these locations can collide when using multiple installations of KDE software side-by-side, we have added patches to make it possible to adapt those pathes. These changes had been (silently) introduced with KDE 4.8 and have gotten a major rework for the KDE 4.10 based applications.
     
    A sample kde.conf looks like that:
    [KDE]
    KDEHOME=%APPDATA%\\KDE\\kde
     
    [XDG]
    XDG_DATA_HOME=%APPDATA%\\KDE\\kde\\data_home
    XDG_CONFIG_HOME=%APPDATA%\\KDE\\kde\\config_home
