描述

We are currently adding Hyper CLI path to user PATH in Windows registry: https://github.com/zeit/hyper/blob/262eb8ad9b7b9b15351f331765151538d67a09e2/app/utils/cli-install.js#L49-L91

A caveat is that environment variables are cached and users should open and validate "Edit environment variables for your account" dialog to force a cache refresh (or simply reboot their workstation).

研究方向
The issue targets the file `app/utils/cli install.js` in the Hyper repository, specifically the function that updates the user PATH via Windows registry. The goal is to avoid requiring a reboot or manual refresh of environment variables. Research the StackOverflow link provided (https://stackoverflow.com/a/11955920) which suggests broadcasting a `WM SETTINGCHANGE` message using `SendMessageTimeout` or calling `SetEnvironmentVariable` with appropriate flags. Implement a solution that applies the PATH change and immediately notifies the system to refresh the environment cache, potentially by using a native Node.js addon or child process to invoke Windows API functions.
