Somesoni2's comment above revealed the correct procedure to resolving this error on Windows. From my reply above:
SET HOMEDRIVE=C:
SET HOMEPATH=\Users\Andrew
Clears the error for:
splunk reload deploy-server
And enables the authentication to proceed.
C:\Program Files\Splunk\bin>splunk reload deploy-server
Reloading serverclass(es).
