Error: Ping/Telnet Not Recognized As An Internal Or External Command, Operable Program Or Batch File.

I Get The Error  "ping is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file" When I Try To Ping To Any Server.
Cause: This error may occur due to messed computer path.

To resolve the problem:

Open a Command Prompt and type: Set <hit Enter>.

You should see included: Path C:\WINDOWS\system32.

To correct the path, on your system go to Start>right-click MyComputer>click Properties.

Click the Advance tab.

Click the Environment Variables button, and select the Path variable listed under System Variables.

When editing it should include: %SystemRoot%\system32.

Which translates to something like: C:\WINDOWS\system32.

Each entry included in the path must be separated by a semicolon.

Try executing the Ping/Telnet command now from the command prompt.

The same will also work for Telnet and other commands.
