📄 Description

On Windows, os.UserHomeDir() does not respect changes to the %USERPROFILE% environment variable, which breaks portable installations that set a custom profile directory.

This fix checks the HOME and USERPROFILE environment variables first before falling back to os.UserHomeDir(), allowing the chat history file location to respect environment variable changes for portable Ollama installations.

Fixes: #14847
