title: Java Environment Variables
body: <p>So I'm setting everything up to compile java on my Windows 10 computer, and when I went to the environment variables there was no existing PATH, so I added one.  When I type "javac" in the command prompt it is able to recognize it, but when I try to save a java file (on notepad as a test) and try to put that in the command prompt I get the "is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."  Everything I've looked up about this response refers back to the environmental variables, but I can't figure out what I did wrong.  My PATH looks like this: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_77\bin.  Am I missing something obvious?</p>
