    System environment variable won't stick

    Running Win10 Home on an Acer Spin 3, 64bit, i7cpu. I try to add a path to the system environment variables by:

    1. Control Panel > System > Advanced system settings > Advanced tab > Environment variables

    2. The "Environment Variables" window opens.
    3. In the "System Variables" pane I select "Path" and click the EDIT button.
    4. A list of the current system paths is displayed.
    5. I click the NEW button, browse to the path I want to add which is "C:\Python36-32" and click OK. The path "C:\Python36-32" is added to the list of current system paths.
    6. I click OK and am returned to the "Environment Variables" window.
    7. I click the "X" at the top right to close the "Environment Variables" window.

    Now if I click the "Environment Variables" button again (end of step-1) and repeat steps 2-4, the new path I added in step-5 is gone. IOW, adding a new path won't stick.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Error message: Run-Time Check Failure #2 stack around the variable 'szBuffer' was corrupted when split screen app load up.

    Hi,

    There are a lot of possible reasons for this issue to occur. To isolate this matter, we have some questions for
    you:


    • Were there any changes made before the issue occurred?

    • Are you pertaining about a 3rdparty
      application or a Microsoft application?

    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    It is possible that the
    system components
    or
    system files
    are corrupted due to some changes that was made by your application.
    We suggest that you run these
    methods of troubleshooting
    and check if there are any changes.

    Method 1:
    Run SFC Scan.  

    SFC
    will
    scan
    and
    run
    an
    automatic repair
    to any
    corrupted system files
    that it will detect. We suggest that you perform it twice. To run an
    SFC scan, follow these steps:  


    • Run
      Command Prompt as Administrator.  

    • Type
      sfc /scannow
      and hit
      Enter.   

    Method 2:
    Run DISM Tool.  

    DISM
    will
    restore any Corrupted System Image
    that causes the
    issues
    on your icons and applications. To perform
    DISM, follow these steps:  


    • Run
      Command Prompt as Administrator.  

    • Type the following command:  

      • DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /scanhealth  

      • DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth  

    NOTE:
    This might take a while to finish scanning.
    Do not cancel.

    Method 3: Perform a Custom Installation of Windows

    Custom installation
    works like installing your
    Windows 10
    again. Performing custom installation will
    replace
    those
    corrupted system
    files
    and
    system image files
    that causes the issue to occur with a new file. Kindly refer to the
    Wiki Article
    entitled
    How
    to: Do a custom installation of Windows
    by
    Andre Da Costa.

    Note:
    Kindly make sure to
    backup
    all your
    important files and folders
    to
    prevent
    data loss.

    We'll be waiting for any updates regarding this matter.

    Regards.
