It may be messed up by some strange setting in the User Environment. Go to the Windows Explorer, right-click on "This PC", select "Properties", in the newly-opened window ("Control Panel>All Control Panel Items>System"), next to the "Computer name, domain, and workgroup settings" select "Change settings" which brings up the "System Properties" window, in whose "Advanced" tab is an "Environment Variables" button. (Or hit the Windows key, type "Edit the system environment variables") You should find the "Path" variable at least in the System variables. It is case-insensitive, so if your User variables contain, say, an empty value for a key "paTH", then the riddle is solved. Ciao, Johannes
