I actually had a similar request a loooooooooong time ago... I'm on linux, tho. Using the tv_autorecord 1. Due to the security measurements I don't allow to write to orangebox/tf directory, therefore it is a requirement to write demos to a specific directory. I'm not sure what valve is cooking so long, because it's just a simple cvar to record demos to a specific directory. Anyways, I did a little research and found out that you can just change (in hex mode) string "auto-" to "demo/" inside the engine file and all the demos will be recorded to the orangebox/tf/demo directory. The prefix "auto" will be dropped from the demo name, but that's not a big deal compared to the benefit. You can use perl to change the string: perl -pi -e 's/auto-/demo\//' engine_i486.so however I'm not sure about the windows, but it should be similar.
