The path.nsh script in the NSIS installer provided methods for adding paths to the PATH and removing them. It would do this by reading the current PATH value from the registry, adding the new value (if it doesn't exist) and then writing it to the registry. Unfortunately, it would read from the user's PATH and write the updated result to the system PATH, which would remove important PATH entries like the following in the process: - C:\Windows\System32 - C:\Windows - C:\Windows\System32\wbem - C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0 - C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH - C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA NvDLISR - C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common and would copy all user environment variables in their place. The variables listed above were the ones missing from my machine when I compared with a friend's machine. Recommended course of action for affected users: 1. Add the paths listed above to your system PATH if they aren't there already and exist on your system. 2. Remove any paths that are in your user's PATH from your system PATH. The existing installers for the last couple of versions of Coder have been yanked from GitHub releases and this message will be included in the release notes for the next patch. Thanks to @cmor for finding and reporting this bug in #5240. |
