I didn't have time right now to try with the shortcut, but I did
something that should have identical effect: clicked "START", typed
"bash" and clicked "OK".  This gave me a new DOS box running a
fully-functional Bash.  In particular, "PATH=c:/djgpp/bin" etc. worked
for me, and typing "set" showed the full PATH.

So please describe the problems in more details.
