Hi John
Here's the official reply (from one of the authors of Graphviz):
==
Indeed, as it says on the Download page:
Note: As of version 2.31, the Visual Studio package no longer alters the
PATH variable or accesses the registry at all. If you wish to use the
command-line interface to Graphviz, you will need to set the PATH
variable yourself.
We would prefer to set the PATH, but we could never seem to get it
right. We would always get someone who complained that we wiped out
their entire repository or something. So we took the minimalist route.
==
I'll have to amend the docs and installation code.
