Summary of the new feature/enhancement

Environment variable length cannot exceed 8196 characters. This limitation should be optional only and the user should be able to switch on/off this limit via some reg edit Key.

You’re going to have to file this one in the feedback hub, because we don’t control how the operating system handles environment variables. Sorry!
