I am wanting to use XMBC Portable in my OneDrive folder so that I can easily use the same settings across multiple computers. This seems to be working well in my initial testing, but I noticed that the Log files do have issues syncing (understandably) because they are being written to on multiple machines. If support could be added for using the following Windows Environmental Variables I could place one or both of these into the path (as part of a folder name) and then each computer's XMBC logs would be separate to that computer.
