    I have some type of (typo?) Error in my system path, but I am going cross-eyed trying to track it down.

    Any suggestions on a more productive way to walk through the path and verify entries aside from just doing a character-by-character edit?

      Why not post your PATH environment here? Perhaps many eyes will spot any issue?

      1. *Right*-click on Start.

      2. Select Command Prompt (or Windows PowerShell).

      2a. If you selected Windows PowerShell then enter cmd to replace the PS prompt with the commandline prompt.

      3. At the commandline prompt, enter path > %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\path.txt

      4. Copy/paste the contents of the newly-created path.txt file on your desktop into a new post.

      (I used this method to spot a double semi-colon issue which I think was introduced by installing chocolatey.)

      Hope this helps…
