Standalone User PATH editor

Following the idea from our UserVoice site that suggests to provide editor for User PATH as well, we added the feature in Windows Environment Variables Editor 1.5 Beta 6:

User Path Editor

So starting from this version, there will be 2 PATH variable editors: for System and for User ones. Their functionality will be equal except that User PATH editor doesn’t have “Default value” button and there is no such value and initially User PATH variable is empty.

Both editors are available from Control Panel as well:

P.S.
This is beta version, don’t forget to backup your PATH variable before playing with the editor.

Change the order of Windows PATH variable entries

Environment Variables Editor 1.5 Beta 5 helps you to simplify the task of changing order of PATH variable entries. Just open the Path editor tab, select the desired entry or even bunch of them and take them to a better place with “↑ Move up” or “↓ Move down” buttons.

In case you are a keyboard lover (as I am), you are more than welcome to use Alt + and Alt + .

Again, it is in beta stage, don’t forget to backup your PATH variable before playing with the editor.
