To run programs such as 7-zip from a batch file or command line requires the path to their installation directory to be added to the Path Environment variable.
From file manager right click on computer
- Select properties
- Select change settings (at right side), in section Computer name, domain and workgroup settings
- Select Advanced tab at the top
- Click on Environment Variables button
- Scroll down list of System Variables to select path
- Click on it and then click on button Edit
- Add extra path item, after an extra semicolon for me to enable 7-zip to run I added
;c:\Program Files (x86)\7-zip\ - Click OK to implement the change.
You may wish to reboot to ensure that the change is implemented. Might be worth double checking the mod to the path statement before you do so.
