Description
Hello,
When installing Keybase using the Windows installer for the Keybase application (I think it is build 386/version 1.0.16.79), the Keybase application doesn't seem to be added to the Windows PATH variable (either the user or the system variable). This prevents users from using Keybase from the command line without adding Keybase's home folder (\AppData\Roaming\Keybase) to a PATH variable.
Thankyou,
psgs 🌴

Research direction
Start by examining the Windows installer for the Keybase application and how it handles the user or system PATH. Reproduce installation on Windows, then verify that Keybase can be used from a command prompt without manually adding its home folder to PATH.
