This must be some issue with the NSIS installer.

Do you have an environment variable called MAYA_APP_DIR?

If not, can you please create one and set the value to
C:\Users\tom\Documents
Note this uses backslash, not forward slash.

and report if that works for you?

I might have to add some code in the installer to replace forward slash by 
backslash, if that is the problem.
