[Windoof (7)] Prepend user PATH to the system PATH environment variable

This is not possible. Probably for security reasons, Windoof always appends a user variable called PATH to the system variable PATH. It looks to me as if Winzigweich does not trust in Windoofs right management. However. work around for cmd.exe usage by creating shortcuts with the shortcut command being
cmd.exe /K set PATH=%_PATH%;%PATH%
where _PATH is a user variable containing the path portion that should be prepended. In my case the system PATH variable contained the path to a broken sqlplus installation. So I wanted to overrule that.
