Answer 3

Check to see if you %SystemRoot% is evaluating (type set path into a command prompt, you should not see %SystemRoot%, but instead that actual path). If your path variable's (user, or systems) first entry begins with an %(an environment variable) this can cause an issue.

To resolve this, simply swap this first entry with anything else in your path that does not lead with an environment variable.
