Summary: Right now we always try to retrieve ComSpec and if we fail, we give up. This rarely fails, but we can update the logic so that we fail even less frequently. Since there is a well-known path (albeit not always correct), try the path when we failed to retrieve it. Note that on other platforms, we generally just return a well-known path without any checking.
