Hi Javi,
For setting and removing environment variables from the command line, use
"setenv.exe". This is a freeware replacement for SetX, with better
functionality. Also try "pathman.exe" for adding or removing sections from
path. This is a Microsoft Resource Kit tool.
A quick search on Google should give you all the info you need, including
download locations.
Hope this helps,
Richard

Subject: Windows environment variables
Hello,
I need to set and remove system or user environment variables at Windows
2000 or XP. But I need to do it by 'hand', I mean, with some command, not
using the Windows GUI. Does anyone how to do this? If I set variables at the
command prompt, they only last during the DOS console is open, and what I
need is that they are available during the user session. I was looking even
the registry but I don't found anything.
What I found was SetX, a reource kit from Microsoft, but it only sets the
variables, and I cannot remove them.
Many thanks
Javi
