You might try starting insight, opening a console window and entering 
"tk set ::env(INSIGHT_FORCE_READ_PREFERENCES)" to verify that this 
variable is being set properly in the environment.

If you also do: "tk $::env(HOME)", what is the result? This is the 
directory that gdbtk.ini should be located in on windows.

You can always force gdb (or insight) to read preferences. Do it in gdb 
by editing main.c and rebuild/reinstall. For insight, simply edit prefs.tcl.

Did you build your version of insight or did you download it from somewhere?
