So I get: C:\work\puppet> envpuppet puppet apply -e "notice($::path)" notice: Scope(Class[main]): c:\work\puppet\ext\..\bin;c:\work\puppet\ext\..\..\facter\bin;c:\puppetwinbuilder\sys\ruby\bin;c:\ruby187\bin;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;c:\bin;c:\puppetwinbuilder\sys\git\bin;c:\puppetwinbuilder\sys\git\bin;C:\Chocolatey\bin;c:\work\puppet\ext;/usr/sbin;/sbin The `:path` setting is populated from the environment, but we also add in /usr/sbin and /sbin (in defaults.rb), obviously not helpful. Filed as https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16019. With that said it shouldn't prevent the exec from working. You can do something like the following to see how puppet resolves which cmd.exe to run: C:\work\puppet>envpuppet irb irb(main):001:0> require 'puppet' => true irb(main):002:0> Puppet::Util.which('cmd.exe') => "C:/Windows/system32/cmd.exe" Or is it not finding reg.exe?
