private bool SetGetPathListDemo()
{
    try
    {
        Console.WriteLine("********************************************************\n");
        Console.WriteLine("Creating an EnvironmentPermission with AllAccess rights for 'TMP'");
        EnvironmentPermission envPerm1 = new EnvironmentPermission(EnvironmentPermissionAccess.AllAccess, "TMP");
        Console.WriteLine("Adding 'TEMP' to the write access list, and 'windir' to the read access list.");
        envPerm1.AddPathList(EnvironmentPermissionAccess.Write, "TEMP");
        envPerm1.AddPathList(EnvironmentPermissionAccess.Read, "windir");
        Console.WriteLine("Read access list before SetPathList = "
            + envPerm1.GetPathList(EnvironmentPermissionAccess.Read));
        Console.WriteLine("Setting read access to 'TMP'");
        envPerm1.SetPathList(EnvironmentPermissionAccess.Read, "TMP");
        Console.WriteLine("Read access list after SetPathList = "
            + envPerm1.GetPathList(EnvironmentPermissionAccess.Read));
        Console.WriteLine("Write access list = " + envPerm1.GetPathList(EnvironmentPermissionAccess.Write));
        Console.WriteLine("Write access environment variables = "
            + envPerm1.GetPathList(EnvironmentPermissionAccess.AllAccess));
    }
    catch (ArgumentException e)
    {
        // EnvironmentPermissionAccess.AllAccess cannot be used as a parameter for GetPathList.
        Console.WriteLine("An ArgumentException occurred as a result of using AllAccess. "
            + " This property cannot be used as a parameter in GetPathList, because it represents "
            + "more than one type of environment variable : \n" + e);
    }

    return true;
}

Remarks

The previous state of the current permission is overwritten.
