Powershell

List the PATH in PowerShell

See https://www.build-business-websites.co.uk/set-path-environment-variable-windows-powershell/

(Get-ItemProperty -Path 'Registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment' -Name PATH).Path

To copy the contents into $theCurrentPath

$theCurrentPath=(Get-ItemProperty -Path 'Registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment' -Name PATH).Path

Easier:

PS C:\Users\marce> $juliaFolder = "C:\Users\marce\AppData\Local\Julia-1.1.1\bin"

PS C:\Users\marce> $env:path
C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\DAL;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\DAL;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\Users\marce\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;C:\Users\marce\AppData\Local\atom\bin

Alternative way to setting Windows PowerShell environment variables:

1.- Run PowerShell as administrator
2.- From the PowerShell prompt, do:
setx PATH "$env:path;C:\Users\Daniel\AppData\Local\Julia-1.1.1\bin" -m
A SUCCESS message should appear
3.- Restart PowerShell
