Adding and Removing

On Install

The following operations can be performed on an environment variable when the package is installed:

  • Create or update
  • Create only if it doesn’t exist
  • Remove

When Existing

If the variable already exists on the target machine, you can choose the way in which the existing variable’s content modifies:

  • Replace
  • Append
  • Prepend

In the last two cases (append, prepend) you can choose the character that will be the separator between the existing value and new one.
