After EMC SourceOne 6.82.0121 upgrade environment variable Path leaves blank.

Hello

I ran in to serious issue while deploying EMC SourceOne 6.82.0121 version to PCs which already has 6.80.4133.

Installation includes only these variables (taken from SourceOne Guide pdf).

If UCase(sArgument) = "INSTALL" Then

  strInstallString = Chr(34) & strScriptDir & "\ES1_OfflineAccess.exe" & Chr(34) & " /s /update /v" & Chr(34) & " /qn REBOOT=ReallySuppress"

  code_Return = WshShell.run(strInstallString, , True)

After the installation for 50% of workstations the environment variable Path left blank! Other 50% seems to be OK.

Logs from the installation:

As a result of this:

As you know without this variable system comes unstable and any other applications who use variables fails.

Any help will be appreciated!
