How can I set environmental (system?) variable %windir% to be C:Windows, globally and permanently? (Windows 7 64b)My PC is having multiple problems, which I suspect are all due to windir somehow getting unset. If I type set windir in a cmd-line window, it says:
Environment variable windir not defined.If I go to Computer>Properties>Advanced system settings it says:
Windows cannot find %windir%System32systempropertiesadvanced.exe.I get a similar 'cannot find' if I try to use System Restore.
If I try to install anything, or try to Run regedit, msconfig, taskmgr, etc:
The system could not find the environment option that was entered.
I can set windir=C:Windows in a cmd-line window, but it is in effect only within that window, and is gone on reboot.
Thanks for any suggestions..bearing in mind that I cannot use regedit, System Restore, or systempropertiesadvanced.exe.
