How to add C:\windows\system32 to path on Windows 8?

Just checked my path ... noticed that C:\windows\system32 was not present.

How can I add this to my path variable, since setx isn't a recognized command? I'm using Windows 8.1 Enterprise if that helps.

PATH=%PATH%;c:\windows\system32

would work at the command line. This will only change it until the command shell exists.

If you go to user accounts and your account I think there is edit environment variables on the left. This will change it for all subsequent sessions.

Consider not changing it permenantly
