Display Options camera view background image stuck - greyed out March 26, 2019, 7:06 a.m.

Hi!
Houdini 17.5 and 17.0

I have a file that was created on a different machine in 17.0.
There was a background image for the camera view set in the display options. This image is not available on the new machine (houdini 17.5). So it dialogues me with a message every time I render a cam view.
Tried to delete the referenced image but the field is greyed out. Can't make changes. I imported the image already but the path doesn't seem to fit. (even if it shows the same letters in the name)
Reopened the file on the old machine and it's greyed out there as well.

Any hint's if this is a bug or my fault?

Thanks !

Where is the houdini.env?? Dec. 2, 2018, 12:31 p.m.

Could someone elaborate a bit on the topic head line, please?
For some other issue I'm looking all over a windows10 system to find the houdini.env file on a houdini 17.0.325
I can't seem to find it.

EDIT: Nevermind. Found it.

For those following the Houdini Website:
It's not as they claim on %HOME%/houdiniX.X/houdini.env but on %HOME/documents/houdiniX.X/houdini.env

For me (on Sierra running the latest Houdini Indie Version) all the above doesn't work.
Render attempts end in getting stuck on “Generating Scene…” and a exit code “3”.
