Hello,
I am using GDAL 3.6.2 on Windows 11 and am having problems with the following error:

ERROR 1: PROJ: proj_create_from_database: Cannot find proj.db

I have set as environment variable PROJ_LIB= "D:\MDT\V9\bin\gdal\gdal_latest\share"  and PROJ_DATA= "D:\MDT\V9\bin\gdal\gdal_latest\share", as user variable and in the system variable, but it still doesn't work and the file proj.db exits in D:\MDT\V9\bin\gdal\gdal_latest\share  .

D:\MDT\V9\bin\gdal\gdal_latest\x64>gdalwarp -s_srs EPSG:4326 -t_srs EPSG:25831 -r near -of GTiff C:\Users\elena\Downloads\D37531385_0101_DTM.asc C:/Users/elena/Downloads/D37531385_0101_DTM_25831_qgis_.tif
ERROR 1: PROJ: proj_create_from_database: Cannot find proj.db
ERROR 1: Translating source or target SRS failed:
EPSG:4326

The funny thing is that I have the same version of GDAL installed on my computer using Anaconda3, to do tests, and from the anaconda directory it works for me, and if I look in the environment variables I don't see any path that refers to where Anaconda has the Proj.db. Is there another way to set the PROJ_LIB path besides adding an environment variable? Is there any way to know where the PROJ_LIB is looking for my version of GDAL?

C:\Users\elena\Anaconda3\envs\mygdal\Library\bin>gdalwarp -s_srs EPSG:4326 -t_srs EPSG:25831 -r near -of GTiff C:\Users\elena\Downloads\D37531385_0101_DTM.asc C:/Users/elena/Downloads/D37531385_0101_DTM_25831_qgis_.tif
