Cypress Runner doesn't show options to run in different browsers on Windows 8

[gitbhat]

Current behavior:

Cypress Runner doesn't show options to run in different browsers

Desired behavior:

once we get the Test runner , on the right hand side we see a drop down which allows us to select different browsers but i dont see this option

Set up:
refering to the below link
https://docs.cypress.io/guides/references/troubleshooting.html#Windows

i see that my program files have the chrome exe in the expected path, this has not solved the issue

Screen shots are attached

I am having the exact same problem and I have spent so many hours on this because I need to run a script headed using chrome from CI, by any chance are you opening it from another server?
For me when I run the command to open cypress locally works just fine and i see chrome but when I run the exact same command from Jenkins then I only see Electron listed

i run it from the test runner directly, but when i tried to run using command headless it worked but headed didn't work for me

Cypress tries to detect the installed browsers (it comes only with Electron), and if it cannot detect a browser, it is not listed. Could you look at the advice we give for launching browsers and try debugging it https://docs.cypress.io/guides/references/troubleshooting.html#Launching-browsers

Please read our debugging browser detection guide and run Cypress with those flags and paste here the debug log #8541 (comment)

In my case I just solved it by adding C:\Windows\System32\wbem in my PATH in Jenkins using withEnv, I do have it in the environment variables of the remote server but for some reason that alone did not work.
