How is that different from what I did ?
I moved the whole contents of Library and kept only the folders
that OSX said were required (and I moved all their contents when
possible).
I am genuinely asking, not trying to make a point.
Because you said that with another machine, respectively with
another user, the problem did not occur.
As far as I understood, you only moved all things out, which OSX
does not state to require. As your problem persists, the culprit
must be somewhere in the files and folders of the remnants of your
~library.
There are sometimes programmers who try to hide a special preference
in another one (eg Demo time counters). Exemple File Buddy 9: it
writes a pref called
"NSWindow.Frame.NSNavGotoPanel" into the file
"com.apple.plugin.settings.java.plist". Deleting that, your demo is
again fully functional....
So it's perfectly thinkable, that your programm has written a pref
somewhere you would not know or think about....and you did not take
out of the library

Ooh, and what I forgot to say: it's maybe not sufficient to remove
only the dot files...there are other pref files around, which are
hidden, but not dot files.
You may have to make all invisible files visible (Mainnmenu.app,
Tinkertool, ev. Terminal) and remove them also...
