Description
Navigate to C/C++ General -> Paths And Symbols.
Select the Symbols Tab.
Add a new Symbol and in the value field, reference an environment variable inside quotes e.g. "${PATH}".
Click save and the trailing double quote is removed.
I've been able to reproduce this issue with the same word he is using but not with other words.
Could you please have a look.
Best Regards.

Research direction
Start in Eclipse's C/C++ General > Paths And Symbols preferences, on the Symbols tab, and trace how symbol values are saved. Reproduce by entering "${PATH}" as a value and saving; compare the stored/displayed value to check whether the trailing quote is preserved. The issue does not name a file or test, so locate the relevant preference code and tests first.
