Entries missing from PATH system variable on Windows 10 - Microsoft Community

hello:

when go control panel-> control panel items -> system -> advanced system settings -> environment variables -> system variables -> path, , click edit button, brings window edit.  presently, when bring window edit, there 14 rows in table:

%systemroot%\system32

%systemroot%

%systemroot%\system32\wbem

%systemroot%\system32\windowspowershell\v1.0\

%userprofile%\.dnx\bin

c:\program files\microsoft dnx\dnvm\

c:\program files\microsoft sql server\120\tools\binn\

c:\program files\microsoft sql server\130\tools\binn\

c:\program files (x86)\microsoft emulator manager\1.0\

c:\program files (x86)\nodejs\

c:\program files\git\cmd

c:\program files (x86)\windows kits\10\windows performance toolkit\

%java_home%\bin

%jre_home%\bin

i need add item path.  when click new button , add item, instead of adding 15th row it  overwrites last item in table.  instead of having 15 items now, still has 14 last item in path deleted

%systemroot%\system32

%systemroot%

%systemroot%\system32\wbem

%systemroot%\system32\windowspowershell\v1.0\

%userprofile%\.dnx\bin

c:\program files\microsoft dnx\dnvm\

c:\program files\microsoft sql server\120\tools\binn\

c:\program files\microsoft sql server\130\tools\binn\

c:\program files (x86)\microsoft emulator manager\1.0\

c:\program files (x86)\nodejs\

c:\program files\git\cmd

c:\program files (x86)\windows kits\10\windows performance toolkit\

%java_home%\bin

d:\cygwin\bin

if compare before , after, you'll see %jre_home%\bin replaced recent item entered instead of being added end of list.  why there fixed limit of characters in system path variable?

how can keep items in system path variable being truncated????

thanks!
