12.11 32bit "Invalid Path or SQL*Plus not found." error message on Execute SQL via SQL*Plus menu option

Execute via SQL*plus isn’t working on two separate 12.11 installs. My 12.10 “Executables” settings imported correctly and point to the correct executable. I live on this one simple feature. Help!

couple of thoughts:

  1. Is the “auto detect” setting right?

  2. you might try just manually setting it again, even though it looks right.

It fails on autodetect, which has the right executable and whenever it is manually entered. I even copied/pasted to a DOS prompt just to ensure the whole E:\oracle12\product\12.1.0\client_1\bin\sqlplus.exe (box 1) or c:\oracle12c32\product\12.1.0\client_1\bin\sqlplus.exe (box 2). 12.10 works like a champ on both boxes with identical settings.

Evil McAfee HIPS Hooking Protection (6010) and Invocation Protection (6011). No idea why it started picking on 12.11.

Evil yet mysterious.
