@lhecker Not sure, I tried to execute $env, I got nothing. But $env:Path shows the value of environment Path
also tried to update the profile to use .\oh-my-posh, just got the same error: The term '.\oh-my-posh' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program.

@lhecker figured out, it seems I did not configured the environment Path correctly.
I should configure the oh-my-posh to the system variables Path instead of the user variables Path
