#430 not refreshing system path variable

[Anonymous]

Couldn't see where to comment so in relation to this report ID: 3520244

Console2 at some point stopped reading the system PATH variable. In cmd.exe echo %path% gives me the correct paths but in console2 echo %path% echos an old version of the paths. This seems to me as if console2 is keeping a cached version of the path variable somewhere and it is not getting refreshed. I am running a clean install of console2 with only one tab setup for C:\%windir%\System32\cmd.exe (same shortcut I use when running cmd by it's self)

This is the correct path shown in cmd:
C:\Users\lotus>echo %path%
C:\PHP\ext;C:\PHP\;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPow
5.5\bin;C:\Program Files\GTK2-Runtime\bin;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\;C:\Progra
ram Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft ASP.NET\ASP
R;C:\usr\bin;C:\PHP\composer\;C:\Python27\Scripts;C:\bin\;C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\;C:\Users\lotus\bin

\libjpeg-turbo\bin;C:\OptiPNG;C:\PhantomJS;C:\PhantomJS;C:\GnuWin\bin;C:\Users\lotus\AppData\Roaming\npm

And the incorrect path shown in console2:
C:\Users\lotus>echo %path%
C:\ruby187\bin;C:\pik\;C:\PHP\ext;C:\PHP\;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\bin;C:\Program Files\GTK2-Runtime\bin;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft ASP.NET\ASP.NET Web Pages\v1.0\;C:\Python27;C:\PHP;C:\PHP\PEAR;C:\usr\bin;C:\PHP\composer\;C:\Python27\Scripts;C:\bin\;C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\;C:\Users\lotus\bin\;D:\virtualBox;C:\GnuWin\bin;C:\ghostscript\bin;C:\Program Files\Heroku\bin;C:\Program Files\ruby-1.9.2\bin;C:\Program Files\git\bin;C:\Program Files\git\cmd;C:\MongoDB\bin;C:\Program Files\SlikSvn\bin;C:\vagrant\vagrant\bin;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Network Monitor 3\;C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\nodejs\;C:\PROGRA~1\Java\jdk1.7.0_21\bin;C:\sysinternals;C:\RailsInstaller\Git\cmd;C:\RailsInstaller\Ruby1.9.3\bin;C:\Ruby193\bin;C:\Program Files\Nmap;C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin;C:\Chocolatey\bin;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\libjpeg-turbo\bin;C:\OptiPNG;C:\PhantomJS;C:\PhantomJS;C:\GnuWin\bin;C:\Users\lotus\AppData\Roaming\npm

That's not only about %PATH%. Console2 somehow caches all environment variables the first time it is run and it uses the cached ones until the computer is restarted. Even closing all Console2 windows and opening them again doesn't help, which seems very odd to me.
