One of the programs that don't work is find from R tools if it is behind
C:\Windows\system32 where the ompletely different windows find is found.

The R Installer on Windows defaults to a path with spaces.
I cannot reconcile it either. Such is life, sometimes.
But when I had to work on that platform in the past I put my open source
stuff into c:/opt/ -- so maybe try reinstalling?
Rtools also had (has ?) a gotcha requiring c:/ placement.
Those might be the problem, but to me it looks more like a path order
problem:
*My path.getenv is : *
[1] "C:\\Users\\ USER \\Documents\\R\\R-3.5.2\\bin\\i386"
[2] "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Intel\\Intel(R) Management Engine
Components\\iCLS\\"

[23] "C:\\Program Files\\Git\\cmd"
[24] "C:\\Rtools\\bin"
[25] "C:\\Rtools\\MinGW\\bin"
[26] "C:\\Users\\ USER \\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps"
[27] "C:\\Users\\ USER \\AppData\\Local\\atom\\bin"
[28] "C:\\Users\\ USER \\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\MiKTeX
2.9\\miktex\\bin\\x64\\"
The OP has 23 directories in the path ahead of the Rtools directories;
I'd guess one of them contains a like-named command that is messing
things up. From the message
1: In FUN(X[[i]], ...) : this requires 'nm' to be on the PATH
my guess would be that there's a bad 'nm.exe' somewhere in there. The
real one is likely in directory 25 (I haven't got current Rtools
installed, so can't tell), but if there's another one earlier, things
won't work.
I'd recommend putting the Rtools directories first. That might mess up
one of the other programs that also wants to be first, so I wouldn't do
it globally, just set up a batch or cmd file to modify the path when you
want to use Rtools.
