\\NasServer\some_dir).
Traditionally, adding a directory to the PATH variable involves several steps:
- Navigating to "Control Panel" -> "System and Security" -> "System".
- Accessing "Advanced system settings" -> "Environment Variables".
- Modifying the "Path" variable under "User variables for <Username>".
AddToPath Win 10 streamlines this process into a simple right-click action.
