Hardcode the paths to Windows PowerShell and CMD (#6684)

Browse Source 
Occasionally, we get users with corrupt PATH environment variables: they
can't lauch PowerShell, because for some reason it's dropped off their
PATH. We also get users who have stray applications named
`powershell.exe` just lying around in random system directories.

We can combat both of these issues by simply hardcoding where we expect
PowerShell and CMD to live. %SystemRoot% was chosen over %WINDIR%
because apparently (according to Stack Overflow), SystemPath is
read-only and WINDIR isn't.
