  1. Win10 Advanced System Settings shows different path than Command Prompt PATH


    The changes to User Variables I made in System Properties aka Advanced System Settings Environment Variables do NOT appear in Command Prompt's PATH, despite a reboot. Several items in Environment Variables are not in the PATH.Why not, but more importantly, how can I fix it?I can't get PyCharm and Python to work properly, without them being in the PATH.

    :)

  2. Set command shows different Path in command prompt than the Environmental Variables GUI

    Windows 10 Home x_64. Over the years I must have either deleted a few programs improperly or the uninstall programs didn't complete as expected. Either way my %PATH% environment variable needs a clean-up. When I open a command prompt and type "set", then
    scroll through the results of the PATH variable, it shows more entries than are shown when I bring up the Environment Variables gui through System.

    I am trying to remove some of the paths that show up through the "set" command, but they are not displayed when I run System/Advanced/Environment Variables through the GUI.

    Where does a command prompt read the %PATH% variable from and how can I edit it?

    Thanks in advance.

    ***Modified title from: Path variable as shown thru Command Line "Set" command does not match What is shown in System gui***

  3. Add a path to $PATH?

    Yeah, I think you're right. I think the purpose of the echo command was to check if ~/bin was in the $PATH file. My problem is that I can't decipher the output and I don't know how to add ~/bin to the $PATH file.

    Just for clarification, the snippet of instructions I gave is just a few steps in the installation process. Nothing is actually supposed to be installed with those steps.

    Thanks for the reply.
