  2. How can I restore a deleted PATH system environment variable?

    There was a system environment variable called "Path", which had numerous things in there. I created one called "PATH" and closed it. When I reopened it, I saw that "Path" had been deleted. I have not restarted my computer. I am here seeking assistance in
    mitigating the damage this has caused, so here are the details:

    - I have no system restore backup

    - I have no command prompts open

    - I have not restarted as of yet

    What are the consequences of deleting this variable? How can I restore the variable?

  3. How can I restore a deleted PATH system environment variable?

    I assume you modified the %path% variable while in a Command Prompt. If so then your action has no effect outside the Command Prompt.
