Hi Roussanka,
did you logout and logged back in? Alternatively, do you see any difference in the environment if you open a fresh Terminal and run "zsh -l" in it?
I don’t see anything untoward in your .zprofile file. It should not make a difference, but can you double check for the presence of a ~/.zshenv?
