   I am not talking about the command processors. I am talking about   
   Windows. It parses the autoexec.bat at boot and adds the variables to   
   the environment of all processes. It does not, however, show the   
   variables in the GUI for setting env. variables.   
      
   If I remember correctly, there was a registry setting you could add to   
   turn off this feature.   
      
   It seems they have abandoned this parsing behavior somewhere along the   
   line. I just tested on Windows 10, which does not do it. I also tested   
   on Windows 2000, which does do it.
