• (If the issue occurs AFTER or DURING Windows 9x's hardware detection phase) I have tried to install with Skip legacy non-PnP hardware detection phase to [OFF] and the issue still occurs.
• (If the issue occurs AFTER or DURING Windows 9x's hardware detection phase) I have tried to install with the integrated driver library set to [OFF] and the issue still occurs.

What happened?

If you have a huge environment (for example if using something like mise, which likes to store internal data in environment variables), the msdos.exe tool explodes with the error too many environments - This is even documented in msdos.txt!

It seems it can be fixed as documented in the msdos.txt: Add -e in the 2 subprocess.run lines: msdos_exe, '-e', regedit_exe
