To determine where an environment variable is set, you can follow these steps:

1. Environment Variables Dialog:

   • Press Win + R to open the Run dialog.
   • Type sysdm.cpl and hit Enter.
   • Go to the Advanced tab and click the Environment Variables button.
   • Here, you'll find both user-specific and system-wide environment variables. You can view, edit, or delete them.

2. Registry Editor:

   • Open the Registry Editor by pressing Win + R, typing regedit, and hitting Enter.
