I'm using Windows 10 and I am required to start using Scite for a class at my university. I've been using intelliJ and that works fine, but for the class our professor strictly wants us to use Scite. Anytime I compile code I get the error:

'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

I went into my Environment variables and my PATH variable is set to:

C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_144\bin;

What can I do to resolve this issue? I haven't got Scite to work in 2 months.

    `javac` is part of the JDK, not of the JRE . – Arnaud Oct 24 '17 at 15:23
  • Good catch. Your path should be set to something like `C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_131\bin` (note the JDK instead of JRE in the file names). Although oddly my path seems to be set to `C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath`. Not sure what that is, some sort of universal path indirection deely. – markspace Oct 24 '17 at 15:27
  • I took your advice and changed the path to the JDK folder, however, code still won't compile and the same error pops up. – doteminmulloy Oct 24 '17 at 15:43
