When Command Line Commands aren’t Recognizing

Hi!
Yesterday i wanted to use Ping command then i saw an error :

‘ping’ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.



This was very strange error. because i have used it many times , and it was working.

When i tried other common Commands like : Ipconfig , shutdown , etc , this error occurred again.

So i used my best friend : Google :) ! and i found the reason of this error.

This error happens when the Environment Variables have been modified by you or by a software.

The solution  :

By following these steps you can fix the problem :

Go to Control panel -> System -> Advanced tab -> Environment Variables

in the System Variables find Path and click Edit and then put this command : ;c:\windows\system32 to the end of Variable value , Click ok , Click ok , Click ok  , well done!  if finished, now Restart windows.
