It's NOT %System Root%system root;%System Root%;%systemRoot%\system32\WBE

It's

%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%systemRoot%\system32\WBEM

Rick told you this before.

It stops being read at the first error.

Hi,
Also there are 2 listings under User Variables and both have the
same path. Are there suppose to be two listed? And under the variable
it lists TEMP the other one is TMP.
Value reads -C:\Documents and Settings\my name\Local Settings\Temp
Is this correct?
Just trying to help with allot of the information that I find.
I am not a computer wiz,but I am trying.



Hi again,
I followed the web page
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?Product=winxp&scid=kb;en-us;826282

Under resolution--The third step-under System Variables-double-click
the PATH environment variable.

under System Variables--Does it read environment variable or should it
read environment variables? Or should it read Path environment
variables?
Which way should it read?
Thanks.

Go back and check that there aren't multiple instances in the PATH statement
now. If your earlier error-laden version is still in there, the whole thing
will be buggered up.

You've said that before

I followed your advice to the T.
Start-Control Panel-Administrative Tools-Local Security Policy-Local
Policies-Security Options.
Copied & pasted your last post under System Variables double clicked
the path Environment Variable.
Pasted %System Root%system root;%System Root%;%system
Root%\system32\WBE- clicked OK-then OK again-then exited by OK

and yet you post back with similar errors.

Type
cmd /c echo %path% > "%userprofile%\desktop\path.txt

and ATTACH the file that appear on your desktop.

Hi,
Being a new user-how do I check for any laden versions?
In the environment variable line?
Can you please read the posts for today that I posted?
I am trying my best to help you find a cure for my computer.
And still trying not to get anyone mad at the same time.
Happy Memorial day everyone.

How rude can a person be? I guess the term NEW USERS need more help
than David Candy is willing to offer!

I'm sorry you are far too stupid. Either read what is written or f*ck off.

Your temp line is wrong.

It should be

%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp

Which will display the same as tmp
C:\DOCUME~1\wmckeeby\LOCALS~1\Temp

You've put the path in there.

Security Policy requires access to the folder.

Hi,
I corrected it by my computer-right click-advanced tab-evvironment
variables-under variable-corrected line for temp. I copied & pasted
your correct line.
Do I have to re-boot first? Or check it now?
Thanks for your time and help.

Changes are live. No need to reboot. Run those two commands again and post the file again.

Hi,

Yes, I'm talking about the whole PATH line in the environmental variables.
Go in there, and carefully use the arrow keys to check the entire length of
it.
