title: system environment variables not working
body: <p>I cannot access my system environment variables from my administrative user account. I am still able to access my user environment variables though. When I try to access SystemPropertiesAdvanced.exe from the Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > System > Advanced system settings, I get an error: "Windows cannot find %windir%\system32\systempropertiesadvance.exe"</p>
  
  <p>From a cmd window, I entered "<em>echo %windir%</em>" and it wasn't set. After that I entered "<em>set</em>" and saw only user environment variables. I navigated to: C:\Windows\System32 and ran SystemPropertiesAdvanced.exe. This worked and I saw my complete list of system variables, but I'm wondering if there is a setting I can adjust which will allow my user account access to the system variables. </p>
