This path issue should be fixed now in the latest toolchain manager release.

I am on macOS and here's what my PATH variable contains when I use the toolchain manager to open a terminal instance.

Here is what my PATH variable contains when I open a new terminal instance from my desktop.

I can add the two tools to my PATH in the terminal instance that I opened using the Toolchain manager using these two commands:

export PATH="/Users/ericpietrowicz/documents/nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_13_0/nrfjprog/:$PATH"
export PATH="/Users/ericpietrowicz/documents/nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_13_0/mergehex/:$PATH"

This allows me to successfully compile sample applications. But, when I close the instance and re-open it the PATH resets back to the above screenshot.

Hi,

Typically the toolchain manager will simply add it's own paths to before the system environment path. Like this:

What does it look like with you?
