ChatGPT 3.5 Answer

Creating environment variables and assigning values to them in PowerShell is straightforward. You can use the Set-Item cmdlet to create or modify environment variables. Here's how you can do it:

# Set a new environment variable
$env:MY_VARIABLE = "my_value"

# Alternatively, you can use Set-Item cmdlet
Set-Item -Path "Env:MY_VARIABLE" -Value "my_value"

# To verify that the variable has been set
$env:MY_VARIABLE

Replace "MY_VARIABLE" with the name of your variable and "my_value" with the desired value.

If you want to create a system-wide environment variable, you may need to run PowerShell with administrative privileges.
