I haven't used Windows for years, I use Calabash on MacOS. Maybe the %USERPROFILE% environment variable isn't set or points to valid directory. Open the Command Prompt and check it:

echo %USERPROFILE%

In your case, it should return this

C:\Users\test

If it's not, you should set it

set USERPROFILE=C:\Users\test

Although you can list all environment variables with this single command

set

Look for some suspicious or undefinied thing. E.g. the value of %USERNAME% variable should equal to test.
