I accidentally changed my path in control panel!

What should I set it to?

I believe the "normal" path should be %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\

1with a semicolon at the end? seriously? windows 8 has a semicolon at the end? can you check that? – barlop – 2014-09-17T00:37:24.833

@barlop Apparently not - I just installed 8.1 in VMware and there isn't one. I'll edit my answer. – Kale Muscarella – 2014-09-17T04:54:33.457

With a backslash at the end of the last path, when there are no backslashes at the end of the other paths? – barlop – 2014-09-17T11:02:57.390

1@barlop It's there, unless VMware changes something, but I didn't use Easy Install or install VMware Tools – Kale Muscarella – 2014-09-17T18:19:55.283
