Hi, I recently had to reinstall Cygwin and in doing so, I have ran into a problem with some application because Cygwin seems to be appended to my PATH environment variable. I have tried to remove this by following these instructions https://www.java.com/en/download/help/path.xml but something strange happens. If I look at the value of Path under 'Environment Variables', Cygwin is not there; however if I type PATH in cmd.exe, I see Cygwin gets appended at the end of the PATH. Can you please help me to know to remove Cygwin from the PATH?
As an example, this is what I see in the Environmental Variables window Path value: Path=C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\iCLS Client\;C:\Program Files\Intel\iCLS Client\;c:\Oracle\11g_R2_x64\Administrator\11.2.0\client_1\bin;C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;%systemroot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\DAL;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\DAL;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\IPT;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\IPT;%systemroot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Apps\Anaconda3;C:\Apps\Anaconda3\Scripts;C:\Apps\Anaconda3\Library\bin And this is what I see in cdm.exe: >PATH PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\iCLS Client\;C:\Program Files\Intel\iCLS Clien t\;c:\Oracle\11g_R2_x64\Administrator\11.2.0\client_1\bin;C:\ProgramData\Oracle\ Java\javapath;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS \System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C: \Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\DAL;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\DAL;C:\Program Files\Intel\Int el(R) Management Engine Components\IPT;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Man agement Engine Components\IPT;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\App s\Anaconda3;C:\Apps\Anaconda3\Scripts;C:\Apps\Anaconda3\Library\bin;C:\blp\DAPI; C:\blp\DAPI\DDE;C:\Apps\cygwin64\bin As you can see, I have Cygwin in the second case, whereas I don't have it on the first case. Many thanks for your help!
