The %PATH% change updates the system?
 

After I add the install directory to the %PATH% variable (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment\path) I expect that when the install is finished to be able to run commands located in the
intallation folder from any folder with >cmd.com or start->run
but the system is not updated with the new value of the environment variable so a restart is needed(NOT WANTED).

What I know is that this is possible in the TCL language (http://tmml.sourceforge.net/doc/tcl/registry.html) with the "registry broadcast" command because I have tested and it worked.

Is there a way in NSIS to do this ?


Thanks!

I have found the solution after searching the forum:

Thanks (for the great information on the forum).
