Meteor is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file on Windows 8.1

Question

This is the output that is showing when I'm trying to use meteor on the command line: '"C:\Users\Javier\AppData.meteor\packages\meteor-tool\1.1.8t-os.windows.x86_32\meteor.bat"'

I don't know what to do and I don't know how to "play" with the path. Nothing.

Solution 1

On my Windows 10 machine after installing meteor, path was set automatically, but meteor command was not working. I found there was backslash at the end of path variable, I removed it and meteor command worked. See the example below:

BEFORE

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\.meteor\

AFTER

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\.meteor

Solution 2

You can try running your command line as administrator. That's if you are developing on Windows

Solution 3

I set this in my PATH

C:\Users\yourUserName\AppData\Local.meteor\

Reboot and it works!

Solution 4

After installation, for the PATH environment variable to be loaded with the correct value, you need to close the cmd prompt and restart it.
