!!!! Thank you! I changed the right-double-quotes and left-double-quotes to just plain double-quotes and this worked on the first try!!!

I called the script “CleanupPath.cmd” and you just run it and your path duplicates will be removed without changing the order of the path.

@setlocal EnableExtensions EnableDelayedExpansion
@set _PATH_=
@for %%a in (“%PATH:;=” “%”) do @if not “%%~a” == “” (
@if “!_PATH_!” == “” @set “_PATH_=;%%~a;”
@set “_T_=!_PATH_:;%%~a;=x!”
@if “!_T_!” == “!_PATH_!” @set “_PATH_=!_PATH_!%%~a;”
)
@endlocal && @set “PATH=%_PATH_:~1,-1%
