java shell 无法启动,无法从Windows PowerShell命令提示符运行Java

I have Java installed on my machine (the JRE is under C:\Program Files\Java) but I can't run any java command from the Windows PowerShell command prompt.

>>> java -version

java : The term 'java' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check

the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

+ java

+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (java:String) [], CommandNotFoundException

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

However, I have noticed that Java does work and that I can run Java commands on the old Windows command prompt. Turns out it's only PowerShell where I can't run those commands.

I have JRE 7 and I'm using Windows PowerShell on Windows 8.

In the run dialog box, enter sysdm.cpl

In the window that came up, navigate to Advanced tab. Click on the Environment Variables button.

Add the location of your java installation (the bin directory) to the PATH variable.

;%ProgramFiles%/Java/jre%version%/bin

followed by a ;

Note:

%version% means the java version.
