Php.Exe' Is Not Recognized as an Internal or External Command, Operable Program or Batch File

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

I think you need to change it to A:\xampp\php\ and just leave it there, then it will search the directory for the file, also: have you tried calling just php instead of php.exe and check that the directory is correct.

Changed Windows PATH but still getting 'php.exe is not recognized ' errormessage

PATH should be a directory, not a file, so you should set it to "c:\xampp\php\", not "c:\xampp\php\php.exe"

php is not recognized as an internal or external command using xampp

When adding an entry to environment variables make sure you leave no spaces between the semicolon and the new path.

I spent a couple of hours going over my steps until I realized that the only difference between other path entries and mine was a single empty space. So i changed it and tried again at the command window (no need to log off and back on) and it worked!

I realize this was asked a while ago but since I found myself looking for a solution i figured this might be helpful to other people too.
