environment-variablesconsole2

Why are environment variables in cmd and Console2 different?

I installed Console2 to replace the Windows default console.

I set the console2 shell as cmd.exe. Everything is okay.

But today, I added maven's path in PATH variables, and execute mvn command, it was not recognized.

So I tried the command in cmd.exe, and it's okay.

Console2 should be only a wrapper for cmd, why the environment variable is not affected?

Solution

  • As you say console2 is only a shell for cmd.exe

    It didn't change the environment of the system.

    so they are always the same.

    did you restart the console2? Try to restart console2 and it will be ok.
