Running the ‘Set’ command in a CMD window will show you all the variables 
available to that specific OS instance.

 

I’ve seen %System% declared when using some of the older packaging applications.

I’ve never seen SYSTEM declared as an environment variable, unless it’s a 
custom one.

 

SYSTEMDRIVE, SYSTEMROOT, but never SYSTEM

I have run across this in a path in a config file and I'm wondering exactly 
what it means / points to.

 

e.g. %[SYSTEM]%\filename

 

It doesn't seem to work as intended and my Google-fu is weak on this one.


Thanks,
