My user path variable only has the entry %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\bin
I have put all other path settings into the system path variable.
If I open a command prompt and echo %path%, the result is "all of the entries from my system path" plus "my user path" plus "again my system path " plus an obscure "C:\PROGRA~2\FLASHM~1" at the end.
If I open an administrative command prompt and echo %path%, the path is properly plain as set in the environment variables applet.
If I remove my user path variable completely the user path is still duplicated from the system path and also has the C
ROGRA~2\FLASHM~1 appendix.
The latter is the short name for C:\Program Files (x86)\Flash Magic.
Does anybody know what process creates this path combination?
I did a registry search on the path settings but could not find anything helpful.
There was also no hints about the FlashMagic entry.
I suppose there is some service or scheduled task or startup process which modifies the PATH variable, but I did not succeed to find it.
