I assumed all environment variables would be exported to the process.
The problem is allowing environment variables to override registry
settings.
One idea would be to do both --- if an environment variable isn't set,
get the value from the registry and set the envronment variable. If the
environment variable is set, use that instead of the registry --- that
might be the best of both worlds.
Enviroment variables are stored in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session
Manager\Environment.
There is no problem to look there if any variable is set or not and - to
add a registry key with new variable or to modify existing.
