home setting

Hello, I am using vim 8.1.1 on Windows 10 on a network where we have network drives as our home directory: H:. I still have a directory on the C drive C:\Users\<username>

I am trying to set the cdpath variable to the following:
set cdpath=.,H:\,C:\Users\<username>\Downloads\

The problem is that this becomes
cdpath=.,~,~\Downloads\

If I change my HOME environment variable to C:\Users\<username> it mostly works, but of course I want to leave the network drive as the home directory. Is there a way to force vim to use the fully qualified path names instead of automatically transforming them to ~.

I believe, though I am not certain, that this worked with vim 8.0.
