A user should be able to modify their own environment variables without
issue.

About 7 paragraphs down it discusses the registry key and method of
announcing an update:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms682653(v=vs.85).aspx

If I had to do this quickly I would give the user account permission to add
values to that key and instruct them to reboot.

There are more in depth approaches out there but I think those are the
basics.

Good luck,
Joe
