I am trying to compile a java program I found on the internet and it says that I must check if javac is installed. I installed the JDK a long time ago so it should be working but I get command not found error:

Javac command not working windows 10

It looks like the javac executable cannot be found because you did not set your PATH environment variable to include it. This is a simple fix.

Since you are clearly using Windows XP..

  • Right click 'My Computer' and select 'Properties'. (or Win + Pause)
  • Go to the 'Advanced' Tab
  • Click the 'Environment Variables' button near the bottom of the dialog
  • Under 'User variables' for your account, there should be a PATH variable, if there is not click 'New' and create it with the variable name PATH and the value as the path to your jdk's bin directory (something like C:Program FilesJavajdk1.6.0bin, it is different between installations so you will have to check C:Program FilesJava for a jdk version). If it already exists but is empty, change it to the path to your jdk's bin directory. If it already exists but is NOT empty, append a semicolon (;) along with the path to your jdk's bin directory.

The value should look like this:

If there were previous values, it should be separated with a semicolon like so:

Javac On Windows

You need to edit the environment variables, as mentioned by John T. The built in windows environment variable editor is kind of a pain, check out Rapid Environment Editor.
