Windows Terminal version

1.21.2911.0

Windows build number

10.0.22631.4460

Other Software

The Windows Terminal doesn't seem to be reading the PATH variable. You see, when I add the System32 to the PATH variable it should be working. I added the file path to both User and System variables. And ive restarted terminal. Any help is appreciated, thank you

Steps to reproduce

When I type the command "ipconfig" it says it is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Expected Behavior

For the command "ipconfig" to work of course

Actual Behavior

"ipconfig" is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.Image
