Windows environment variables

[rldevries]

In Ch 2.6.7 and again in Ch 4.4.1, it says to create an environment variable using set PORT=3000
When I insert this line in bash or CLI or VS Code terminal, the results are the same - Cannot find variable PORT. I then created a global variable in Advanced system settings, Environment Variables, System Variables (rebooted system) and still a 'No-Joy'.

Any pointers are most welcomed and appreciated!

I was having this problem too.

In Ch 2.6.7, for powershell you should be able to use:
$env:PORT=3000

In Ch 4.4.1, for powershell use:
$env:PORT=3000
$env:STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME = "<the name of your storage account>"
$env:STORAGE_ACCESS_KEY = "<the access key for you storage account>"

Hope this helps!
