    if you want to permanently set environment variable, you can insert the new value into registry. eg with vbscript, add the path “c:\test” into PATH variable

    Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
strReg = "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\Path"
strSetting = WshShell.RegRead(strReg)
strNewSetting = strSetting&";c\test"
WshShell.RegWrite strReg, strNewSetting

    So, if you use Python or other languages, you can do the same thing using your language’s own api/modules to read and write registry
