How to see Names and Values of Environment Variables in Windows 11/10

If you want to see the names and values of Environment Variables in Windows 11 or Windows 10, here is how you can do that. There are mainly four ways to find almost everything about the Environment Variables in Windows 11/10, and this article explains all the possible methods.

What are Environment Variables in Windows 11/10

Environment Variables contain some information related to WindowsApps path, currently logged-in user’s information, Temporary folder’s path, running processes, etc. Although Windows 11/10 comes with a few of those, you can add or modify Environment Variables in Windows PC easily.

However, if you want to find those Environment Variables in Windows 11 or Windows 10, this guide will be handy for you. As said earlier, there are four ways – using the Windows Settings panel, using Command Prompt, using the Registry Editor, and using Windows PowerShell.

To see names and values of Environment Variables in Windows 11/10, follow these methods:

  1. Using Windows Settings panel
  2. Using Command Prompt
  3. Using Registry Editor
  4. Using Windows PowerShell

To learn more about these steps, continue reading.

1] Using Windows Settings panel

How to see Names and Values of Environment Variables in Windows 11/10

It is the most common method to find the names and values of the Environment Variables in Windows 11/10 PC. Earlier, it was possible to do the same using Control Panel. However, if you are using Windows 11, there is no need to go through the Control Panel since it will eventually open the Windows Settings.

Follow these steps to find the Environment Variables:

  • Press Win+I to open Windows Settings.
  • Go to System > About.
  • Click on the Advanced system settings.
  • Click the Environment Variables button.
  • Find the Environment Variables.

Next, you need to click on each variable to find the details. It displays a detailed list in the System variables box.

2] Using Command Prompt

How to see Names and Values of Environment Variables in Windows 11/10

It is probably the easiest method to find almost everything about the Environment Variables on Windows 11/10 PC. For this purpose, we are going to use the Command Prompt instance in Windows Terminal. However, you can open the standalone Command Prompt window and enter the following command:

set

In case you do not know the process to open the Windows Terminal, you can press Win+X and select the Windows Terminal from the WinX menu.

3] Using Registry Editor

How to see Names and Values of Environment Variables in Windows 11/10

If you do not want to do much with the Environment Variables and want to check them only, you can use the Registry Editor. As these variables depend on the user profile, you need to open the HKEY_CURRENT_USER. To find the names and values of the Environment Variables using Registry Editor, do the following:

  • Press Win+R to open the Run prompt.
  • Type regedit and hit the Enter button.
  • Click on the Yes button in the UAC prompt.
  • Navigate to this path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment
  • Find the variables.

In case you want to modify the existing variables using Registry Editor, you need to double-click on each of them and change them according.

4] Using Windows PowerShell

How to see Names and Values of Environment Variables in Windows 11/10

Like, Command Prompt, you can use Windows PowerShell to find the same Environment Variables on your Windows 11 or Windows 10 computer. However, it displays all the Environment Variables of all the users, whereas other methods display only the current user’s variables. That being said, the list could be lengthy since it may contain some variables, such as ComSpec, LOCALAPPDATA, HOMEDRIVE, HOMEPATH, ALLUSERSPROFILE, etc.

If you are fine with the lengthy list, you can use Windows PowerShell and enter this command:

dir env:

Like the Command Prompt method, you can open the standalone Windows PowerShell or the PowerShell instance in the Windows Terminal.

How do I view Environment Variables in Windows 11?

To view the Environment Variables in Windows 11, you can use any of the aforementioned methods. If you do not want to modify existing variables, you can use the Command Prompt method. For that, you can open the Command Prompt or the Command Prompt instance in Windows Terminal and enter this command: set. Then, it displays almost everything about the current user’s Environment Variables on your screen. Similarly, you can use the Windows PowerShell method to get the same thing done. In that case, you have to use this command: dir env:

How do I get a list of Environment Variables?

To get a list of Environment Variables, you have four techniques in your hands. However, using the Windows Settings method is probably the most fruitful method since you can view, add, or modify any Environment Variable without any issue. However, if you want to get a list only, you can use any of the other three methods. To choose one, you can open the Windows Terminal and enter this command in the PowerShell instance: dir env:. If you want to use the Command Prompt instance, you need to execute this command: set.

That’s all! Hope this guide helped.

Azure Deployment Environments Now Generally Available

At the annual Build conference, Microsoft announced Azure Deployment Environments' general availability (GA). This service allows development teams to create segregated instances within Azure for deploying and managing applications in different stages, such as development, testing, and production, to ensure controlled and consistent deployment processes.

Last year at Ignite conference, the company released the public preview of Azure Deployment Environments after a private preview earlier. The GA release includes new features gathered from the feedback of customers using the private preview onwards. These features are:

In addition, Microsoft is working on an integration between Azure Deployment Environments and the Azure Developer CLI (azd), which has been available since last year.

Sagar Chandra Reddy Lankala, a senior program manager at Microsoft, explains the benefits of Azure Deployment Environments in an Azure Developer Community blog post:

By enabling self-service deployment for developers, Azure Deployment Environments also benefits platform engineers and other admins, eliminating redundant work while giving them centralized control to keep environments secure and cost-effective. Rather than repeatedly provisioning environments for different developers, platform engineers provide developers with a catalog of standardized, pre-approved templates, promoting collaboration and knowledge sharing.

With the service, users also can establish predetermined rules regarding which roles have the authorization to deploy specific types of environments (such as development, testing, staging, or production), and they can ensure these environments are deployed in the appropriate subscription or management group, incorporating all relevant policies and cost controls.

For developers, the service provides means to spin up an environment to explore Azure or have a sandbox environment for testing purposes. Through the Azure Portal, they can create and access the environments.

Azure Deployment Environments is an addition to the existing services, such as CodeSpaces and Microsoft Dev Box the company made available earlier to enhance developer productivity and coding environments. CodeSpaces allows developers to get a VM with VSCode quickly, and similarly, with Microsoft Dev Box, they can get an entire preconfigured developer workstation in the cloud.

Scott Hanselman, a partner PM at Microsoft - Developer Division Community Manager, concluded in a video on Azure Development Environments:

It's really going to help enterprises take it to the next level. This is the promise of the cloud, its scale and elasticity for your engineering systems.

More details of Azure Deployment Environments are available on the documentation landing page. Pricing-wise, the service is free, and customers will only be charged for other Azure resources like compute storage and networking created in environments.

Managing Anxiety: Tips and techniques

Tampa (BLOOM) – Anxiety is a common experience for many people, but it can be a debilitating condition when it becomes chronic or interferes with daily life. Fortunately, there are many techniques and strategies that can help manage anxiety and Boost overall well-being.

Understanding Anxiety

Before we dive into tips and techniques, it’s important to understand what anxiety is and how it affects us. Anxiety is a natural response to stress, but it can become problematic when it persists over time or interferes with daily life. There are several types of anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, and specific phobias.

Anxiety can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, brain chemistry, life events, and environmental factors. Some common triggers of anxiety include work-related stress, financial concerns, relationship issues, and health problems. Symptoms of anxiety can vary from person to person but may include feelings of nervousness, tension, restlessness, and a sense of impending danger or doom.

Tips for Managing Anxiety

There are several techniques that can be effective in managing anxiety. Here are some of the most widely recommended tips:

Healthy Lifestyle Changes

Lifestyle changes can play a significant role in managing anxiety. Here are three important areas to focus on:

  • Exercise: Regular exercise has been shown to reduce anxiety symptoms by increasing levels of serotonin and endorphins, which are chemicals in the brain that Boost mood. It can also help to reduce stress and tension in the body. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise most days of the week.
  • Diet: Eating a healthy, balanced diet can also help to manage anxiety symptoms. Focus on eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Avoid foods that are high in sugar, caffeine, and alcohol, as these can exacerbate anxiety symptoms.
  • Sleep: Getting enough restful sleep is critical for managing anxiety. Aim for at least 7-8 hours of sleep each night. Stick to a regular sleep schedule, avoid screens for at least an hour before bed, and create a relaxing bedtime routine to help you wind down.

Relaxation Techniques

Relaxation techniques can help to reduce stress and anxiety in the body. Here are three effective techniques:

  • Deep breathing: Deep breathing can help to slow down your breathing and calm your body. Find a quiet place to sit or lie down, and take slow, deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth.
  • Progressive muscle relaxation: This technique involves tensing and relaxing different muscle groups in your body. Start by tensing a muscle group, such as your shoulders, for a few seconds, then release the tension and let the muscles relax.
  • Yoga: Yoga combines physical postures with deep breathing and relaxation techniques. It has been shown to reduce anxiety symptoms and Boost overall well-being. Try a beginner’s yoga class or follow along with a yoga video online.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of therapy that can help to manage anxiety by identifying and changing negative thought patterns. Here are three steps involved in CBT:

  • Identifying negative thought patterns: Start by paying attention to your thoughts and identifying any patterns of negative thinking. Common patterns include catastrophizing, black-and-white thinking, and jumping to conclusions.
  • Challenging negative thoughts: Once you’ve identified your negative thought patterns, challenge them by asking yourself if they’re really true. For example, if you’re catastrophizing about a work project, ask yourself if the worst-case scenario is really likely to happen.
  • Replacing negative thoughts with positive ones: Once you’ve challenged your negative thoughts, replace them with more positive and realistic thoughts. For example, instead of catastrophizing about the work project, focus on the steps you can take to complete it successfully.

Techniques for Coping with Acute Anxiety

While the tips and techniques above can be effective for managing ongoing anxiety, there may be times when you experience acute anxiety symptoms that require immediate relief. Here are two techniques that can help:

  • Grounding Techniques: Grounding techniques can help you stay present and connected to your surroundings when you’re experiencing anxiety. Some effective techniques include focusing on your breath, using your senses to observe your surroundings, and practicing progressive relaxation.
  • Distracting Activities: Distracting yourself from anxious thoughts can help to reduce anxiety in the moment. Try engaging in a hobby, socializing with friends, or watching a movie to take your mind off of your worries.

Additional Tips and Resources

In addition to the tips and techniques above, there are several other resources that can be helpful for managing anxiety. These include:

  • Seeking Professional Help: If you’re experiencing chronic or severe anxiety symptoms, it may be helpful to seek professional help. A therapist can help you develop coping strategies and address underlying issues that may be contributing to your anxiety.
  • Mindfulness Meditation: Mindfulness meditation involves focusing your attention on the present moment and observing your thoughts and feelings without judgment. It has been shown to reduce anxiety symptoms and Boost overall well-being.
  • Medication for Anxiety: There are several types of medication that can be effective in managing anxiety, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and benzodiazepines. These medications should be prescribed by a doctor and used under their supervision.

Additional Resources

  • Books: memorizing books on anxiety can help you gain a better understanding of the condition and learn new strategies for managing symptoms. Some recommended books include “The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook” by Edmund J. Bourne and “Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy” by David D. Burns.
  • Apps: There are many apps available that can help you manage anxiety on a day-to-day basis. Some popular apps include Calm, Headspace, and Pacifica.
  • Support Groups: Joining a support group can help you connect with others who are going through similar experiences and provide a sense of community. Support groups can be found online or in-person and can be a great way to share your experiences and learn from others.
  • Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR): MBSR is a program that uses mindfulness meditation to help people manage stress and anxiety. The program includes guided meditation, gentle yoga, and group discussion and has been shown to be effective in reducing anxiety symptoms.

Anxiety can be a difficult condition to manage, but there are many effective techniques and strategies that can help. By making healthy lifestyle changes, practicing relaxation techniques, and seeking professional help when needed, you can reduce your anxiety symptoms and Boost your overall well-being. Remember, anxiety is a manageable condition, and there is no shame in seeking help when you need it.
