Hi Dan

Thanks for your post.

The entries in:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Volatile Environment

are volatile. This means that they don't survive a reboot and are deleted by Windows. Can you confirm that this is where you are looking?

The 'PurgeReg' entry, if set to '0', will ensure that all existing entries are deleted before the current backup. This means that there will only be one set saved. This includes information about the last backup and should be far less than 64K. This doesn't present a problem for Windows 8.

Can you please double check this registry entry and also confirm what environment variables you are seeing.

Kind regards
