WinPE4 Set Path Plugin

Ever have a need to modify the Path in WinPE?  You can do this temporarily in Startnet.cmd, but once you close the CMD Prompt, that modification goes away.

This Plugin will do that for you when you Update Deployment Share (update Boot Images) by modifying the Path Statement in the registry.  The Path Statement is stored here:
HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Environment

Default Path Statement in WinPE 4:

"%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem"

Default Path Statement in WinPE 4 with Windows PowerShell 3.0 Feature Pack:

"%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SystemRoot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\"

Make sure to include the Default Path above and append your changes at the end using a semicolon.
