Install Sysinternals suite in environment path variable to save time

One thing I have been doing for years and saved me lots of troubleshooting time is to install the Sysinternals Suite on every server and put that directory into the path environment variable so you can run any Sysinternals application straight from any CMD or Powershell prompt.
At the time of writing the download link was:
http://download.sysinternals.com/files/SysinternalsSuite.zip

I always uncompress the sysinternals zip file and install them in the same directory (eg c:\sysinternals) for consistency. Once you have installed them add the path of that directory to the Windows path environment variable.

Run this in an elevated Powershell prompt to add your new path to the current path.
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("Path",$Env:Path + ";C:\sysinternals", "Machine")

Now if you (or anybody else) opens a command prompt or Powershell prompt you can run your favourite Sysinternals commands without navigating to the directory.

Since you always install to the same directory it is easy to update all the servers from a central repository by robocopying a new installation to overwrite the old one. The great thing about Sysinternals tools is that they run without any installation.

It goes without saying that tools of this power so easily run can be a significant security risk so make sure you weigh up the pros and cons in your own environment before 'installing' them.
