Restart your session, and the variable will be available. Like JeanT's answer , I wanted an abstraction around adding to the path.
Unlike JeanT's answer I needed it to run without user interaction. Other behavior I was looking for:. Check out my gist for the corresponding Remove-EnvPath function. Although the current accepted answer works in the sense that the path variable gets permanently updated from the context of PowerShell, it doesn't actually update the environment variable stored in the Windows registry. If you use PowerShell community extensions, the proper command to add a path to the environment variable path is:.
All the answers suggesting a permanent change have the same problem: They break the path registry value. Any other variables in the path are lost as well. I explain the problem in more detail in a blog post. You can add this function to your default profile, Microsoft. If not, then you could damage your OS. To make it easier, you can split the output into rows by using the semi-colon as a delimiter:. Building on Michael Kropat's answer I added a parameter to prepend the new path to the existing PATH variable and a check to avoid the addition of a non-existing path:.
NOTE 1: all of these commands should be ran on powershell-eleveted-mode e. NOTE 2: after every step to make your commands work close the session and open it again to make things done. More information is in About Environment Variables. Only the answers that push the value into the registry affect a permanent change so the majority of answers on this thread, including the accepted answer, do not permanently affect the Path. It will also add the new path to the current session by default.
Most answers aren't addressing UAC. This covers UAC issues. Power shell, and the rest of Windows get whatever you set here. Yes you can use these new methods, but the old one still works. And at the base level all of the permanent change methods are controlled ways of editing your registry files. I tried to optimise SBF's and Michael's code a bit to make it more compact.
I am relying on PowerShell's type coercion where it automatically converts strings to enum values, so I didn't define the lookup dictionary. I also pulled out the block that adds the new path to the list based on a condition, so that work is done once and stored in a variable for re-use.
We can put the block of code in a function or a ps1 file that we call directly from the command prompt. I went with DevEnvAddPath. Lots of examples of appending, or overwriting.
Here is an example of prepending a path on powershell for Linux, Ubuntu I'm specifically adding the linuxbrew homebrew for linux bin directory to take precedence over the system installed.
It helped solve an issue I was having and although this was the most helpful place, it also left me "experimenting". Note that the : is Linux path separator, whereas on Windows or at least my windows you would use ; for powershell typically.
Editing the registry key in ali Darabi's answer worked best for me, but When I didn't have the right permissions to do it from Powershell. So I edited it directly in regedit. Restarting Powershell also wasn't sufficient to propagate the change. I had to Open Task Manager and restart explorer. It can be quite tedious to navigate the registry so in order to maintain an user friendly experience you can execute this from Powershell:. It sets the last opened window to a certain registry path, so that when you open regedit the next time it opens at the proper key.

Note 2: Observe a semi-colon between each item; this is valuable information if you need to append more Path values. Net Framework elements. This utility will also guide you through troubleshooting; the dashboard will indicate whether the root cause is a broken link, faulty equipment or resource overload.
What I like best is the way NPM suggests solutions to network problems. Its also has the ability to monitor the health of individual VMware virtual machines. If you are interested in troubleshooting, and creating network maps, then I recommend that you try NPM on a day free trial.
When you change the value of an environment variable using PowerShell commands, the changes only affect the current session. This behavior mimics using the Set command of previous Windows operating systems.
You can use PowerShell to make a persistent change, the technique involves making changes the registry values.
