--- Comment #30 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net --- (In reply to Emmanuel Charpentier from comment #27)
So the FAQ § 7.4 should be rewritten to explain the exact procedure to use. The example given does *NOT* work currently.
If the documentation issue is the only reason this bug is still being kept open, that's been fixed. The relevant section of the FAQ is now 5.8, and it was rewritten some time ago to explicitly state the need to add a dot character to the end of the list of extensions in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\PATHEXT (per comment 21).
