Problem with PATH_TO_FILES in namelist.output

[Shi2018]

HI,

After running my case, I found "PATH_TO_FILES = ~/WRFV3/" in namelist.output. This seems wrong because I don't have this folder, and the model version which I used is 4.0.3. I did not set this path in namelist.input. What is the role of PATH_TO_FILES? And if I want to change it, what part of namelist.input should I add it to?

here is my namelist.input:
