Windows 10: Environmental variables different in CMD and Windows Explorer

When I open environmental variables window I get the following environmental variables: C:\msys64\mingw64\bin;C:\msys64\mingw64\lib;C:\msys64\usr\bin;%GAMSDIR%;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\OpenSSH\;C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2019a\runtime\win64;C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2019a\bin;C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2015b\runtime\win64;C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2015b\bin;C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2019a\bin\win64;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\;

When I run in cmd env I have much more env variables that I don't know how to remove:
PATH=/mingw64/bin:/mingw64/lib:/usr/bin:/c/GAMS/win64/27.2:/c/GAMS/win64/27.2/gbin:/c/Windows/system32:/c/Windows:/c/Windows/System32/Wbem:/c/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0:/c/Windows/System32/OpenSSH:/c/Program Files/MATLAB/R2019a/runtime/win64:/c/Program Files/MATLAB/R2019a/bin:/c/Program Files/MATLAB/R2015b/runtime/win64:/c/Program Files/MATLAB/R2015b/bin:/c/Program Files/MATLAB/R2019a/bin/win64:/c/Program Files/TortoiseSVN/bin:/c/Program Files/Git/cmd:/c/Program Files/TortoiseHg:/c/Users/sbajic/AppData/Local/Continuum/Anaconda2/Anaconda1/Anaconda2:/c/Users/sbajic/AppData/Local/Continuum/Anaconda2/Anaconda1/Anaconda2/Scripts:/c/Users/sbajic/AppData/Local/Continuum/Anaconda2/Anaconda1/Anaconda2/Library/bin:/c/Users/sbajic/AppData/Local/Continuum/Anaconda2:/c/Users/sbajic/AppData/Local/Continuum/Anaconda2/Scripts:/c/Users/sbajic/AppData/Local/Continuum/Anaconda2/Library/bin:/c/Users/sbajic/Anaconda2:/c/Users/sbajic/Anaconda2/Scripts:/c/Users/sbajic/Anaconda2/Library/bin:/c/Users/sbajic/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps


Could you please advise how can I remove these environmental variables that seem to be hidden and were entered by error?
Thank you.

Environmental Variables Unexpected Behaviour


I wanted to include some environmental variables today and found some strange goings on. The variable I wanted to change was simply to add a PATH.

In the case of changing a user's variables:
It would be accepted but when I did a PC restart I was presented with a new blue screen that gave me the following options:
1/ Continue (which restarted the PC)
2/ Use a device
3/ Troubleshoot
4/ Turn off your PC

In the case of changing the system variables:
It would take me to the new interface and let me add my new path (through folder browse) but it would overwrite the last entry in the list. Adding a second new path did the same thing.

Anyone have any ideas?

After this post I went back in and tried using the edit line facility. I was able to exit out of the environmental variables window but I was not able to Click OK on the System Properties Window. Further I was not able to close this window at all - including the X in the top right hand corner.

Finally found the problem, I was using a file location for 1 of the paths.
