Permanently for the whole system

 echo "PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin" >> /etc/profile && source
/etc/profile

Permanently for one user:

 echo "PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin" >> ~/.bashrc && source  ~/.bashrc

Temporary for a single program start:

 env PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin netbeans.exe

Permanetly for one program:

 echo "export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin" >> netbeans-starter.bsh
 echo "netbeans.exe" >> netbeans-starter.bsh
 chmod +x netbeans-starter.bsh

Adapt the names to your needs.
