fish_directory

If fish is installed in a standard location, there is no need to customise this setting. Standard locations are:

• For macOS/Linux: any location on the PATH.
• For Windows: C:/cygwin/bin or C:/msys32/usr/bin for 32-bit systems, C:/cygwin64/bin or C:/msys64/usr/bin for 64-bit systems.

If you wish to use fish installed in any other location, set its directory here. On Windows, only Cygwin/MSYS2 fish installs are supported; Windows Subsystem for Linux does not seem to work.
