Can'r get it to work Typing "set" shows path name changed in Command Prompt when I type in the exe file name that is in the bin file it is not recognised? Why? Just another way computers waste our lives. Does it matter where I have stored the executable file, or is only important to have the right path to it? Currently have it in my Downloads directory. Should I manually move it to the Grograms directory? You advice would be very welcome Thank you. Repeatedly, 1 hr, tried your advice.

I'm trying to run Control Panel -- Scanners and Cameras. I get error "Windows cannot find the program "D:\Program'. Make sure you typed the words correctly, and then try again." I regret changed a path in the registry without backup. I see the harm it has done. I promise to learn to back up the Registry before I fiddle with it.

we need to run the programs off our flash drives and have our compilers on them, we need to set a path to:

borland\bcc55\bin to bcc32.exe

which when done correctly is suppose to allow us to type: bcc32 and it will run without us being in its directory.

some of us have vista and it will not set the system path, how or can we do this off our flash drives?
