Error "too many environments" from msdos.exe #99
Description
Checklist
- I have searched the issue tracker and was unable to find an open or closed issue matching what I'm seeing.
- (If the issue occurs AFTER or DURING Windows 9x's hardware detection phase) I have tried to install with
Skip legacy non-PnP hardware detection phaseto[OFF]and the issue still occurs. - (If the issue occurs AFTER or DURING Windows 9x's hardware detection phase) I have tried to install with the integrated driver library set to
[OFF]and the issue still occurs. - I understand that support is provided voluntarily for free, and that the author is not Microsoft and can/will probably not fix bugs in the operating system code itself. I also understand that it is impossible to support every single hardware combination out there.
What happened?
If you have a huge environment (for example if using something like mise, which likes to store internal data in environment variables), the msdos.exe tool explodes with the error too many environments - This is even documented in msdos.txt!
It seems it can be fixed as documented in the msdos.txt: Add -e in the 2 subprocess.run lines: msdos_exe, '-e', regedit_exe
