This answer does a pretty good job of covering the bases on this topic: https://superuser.com/a/284351 <https://superuser.com/a/284351> for Windows Vista and later you can write:
setx USERPROFILE "c:\Users\SuitableASCIIname"
note the x in the command and the lack of an = sign. Also, the quotes are mandatory if the value has spaces.
