LP360 Error: The task 'PointCloudStatsExtractor' cannot be run

Problem:

LP360 Errors when trying to run a Point Cloud Statistics Extractor PCT, stating, "The task 'PointCloudStatsExtractor' cannot be run. Reason: An Error occurred expanding environment variables in the path: ". Verify the Environment Variable is defined in the System Properties of this computer."

Probable Resolution:

This error message likely indicates that the output dataset (shapefile) has not been specified, or it is relying on the <LP360 Project Path> variable and the LP360 Project Path is invalid. Be sure to scroll all the way to the bottom of the PCT properties pane or open the I/O Manager using one of the inputs at the top of the properties pane to verify the settings.
