. . . Also, please explain this: I've put nircmd.exe in my Environment Variables
I created this folder . . . C:\Windows\System32\USER-ADDED
I put nircmd.exe and nircmdc.exe in it, then:
Control Panel / System / Advanced system settings / Advanced tab - Environment Variables button at bottom
. . . System variables / click on Path - Edit . . . I put this folder in the list: C:\Windows\System32\USER-ADDED
Then do a Restart, so it takes effect.
