I don't use 'addpm'; I just start emacs by running 'runemacs.exe', and
it sets up those environment variables correctly.

So I suggest you delete the Windows registry entries relating to
emacs. Also check in the Windows environment for those variables, and
in any shell startup scripts; delete them all.
