Hi, using 'env -i' to create an empty environment, the SYSTEMROOT and WINDIR environment variables are preserved (or recreated): $ /usr/bin/env -i /usr/bin/env SYSTEMROOT=C:\Windows WINDIR=C:\Windows
And with cygpath, there is the -A, -D, -H, -O, -P, -S, -W and even -F flags to query the values for various directories. Now what I've failed to find is how to query the value for the "SystemDrive" environment variable. The problem behind is that I'm using "vswhere.exe" to locate some Visual Studio environment from within some scripts run via 'env -i', causing vswhere.exe to create a directory named "%SystemDrive%" in the current working directory: So I better ensure the SystemDrive environment variable is set for vswhere.exe. Any ideas?
