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

Added path to bin in environment variables, but still receiving this error

[RasPhilCo]

How did you install the CLI?

[ptrkvsky]

same here, installed with windows program.

[ptrkvsky]

didnt work with powershell but worked with classic cmd.exe

I realize this issue is a little old, but I noticed an issue while installing the app via the download link, that may be part of the problem here, too. If your PATH variable is close to 1024 characters long, the installer won't add the Heroku path to it. However, if you use scoop to install heroku-cli (scoop install heroku-cli), then a script is added to the global Scoop shims directory (which is like a node_modules/.bin directory), so you can still use heroku from the command line without any reliance on the PATH variable.

I also used the Windows 64-bit installer and the CLI doesn't work for me. It installs the cli in Program Files directory but not in %LOCALAPPDATA%\heroku. I am guessing it is because of a missing shell script or something.

[Nobodyno-boop]

Same issue, with diferent "ExecShell" but doesn't work. No files in %LOCALAPPDATA\heroku%.

[GalaxySH]

Same here, ticked the add to path option and the add to local files option, but it isn't in %localappdata%. I looked at the environment variables and it was there in Program Files/heroku/bin, but it still doesn't work in PowerShell or the classic cmd. There doesn't seem to be a good solution to this anywhere, so I'll just leave this here and abandon heroku until something happens.

Make sure to run cmd as an Admin and on your cmd. Then copy the address of Heroku bin. On your command like, enter SET PATH = %bin path% using @GalaxySH input as an example C:\Users\stefa> SET PATH = C:\Program Files\heroku\bin C:\Users\stefa> heroku --version

Thank you so much!

[Saurav-Shrivastav]

It only runs when we run cmd as administrator.

[Saurav-Shrivastav]

I closed the terminal and ran it again. Yayyyyy! It started working. Quite Strange!

[Sammy-White]

heroku is running on my command prompt but not running of my vs code terminal what might be the cause ??

[pratik0197]

didnt work with powershell but worked with classic cmd.exe

Worked for me too.. Thank you

[valekhya]

@Sammy-White I had the same proble. I restarted mt terminal but it didn't work out. I restarted my VS code & now it works fine for me

[vishwaverma]

If you open vcode with command then close vcode and also command prompt from where you open.open new command prompt and open v code it worked.also check Heroku path is properly set on Environment variable.

thanks soo much, i did and restarted my Vscode and terminal window

[Adebasis]

if some one is facing problem to check heroku command in vscode, then pls close the vscode and then start again. it will surely work.

[sneha-nitdgp]

Woah, thanks! Worked for me too! :)

[Ramondy]

I had the same issue after I installed Heroku using the Windows dowloadable installer, running as Administrator.

To fix it, I had to manually edit the path variable in my user account.

[Anku-gamer]

Make sure to run cmd as an Admin and on your cmd. Then copy the address of Heroku bin. On your command like, enter SET PATH = %bin path% using @GalaxySH input as an example C:\Users\stefa> SET PATH = C:\Program Files\heroku\bin C:\Users\stefa> heroku --version

THanks mate, you just saved my day. :D

[ed3899]

It only runs when we run cmd as administrator.

Indeed, using powershell 7.1.3 as Admin did the job

[mario-ibarra]

In the environmental variables, under System variables create new path. Enter new then C:\Program Files\heroku\bin I also remove the path from User variables for Administrator. There was it before. Now is working everywhere.

[pratham161]

@Sammy-White I had the same proble. I restarted mt terminal but it didn't work out. I restarted my VS code & now it works fine for me

thankyou man this is working

[TejashriKate]

@BAbate

I am running 'heroku login' through Pycharm IDE as (demo) C:\Users\Guest\PycharmProjects\demo>heroku login 'heroku' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

so implemented your solution along with setting enviormental/system variables path too; but still facing above error.

[komodovaran]

For some reason I couldn't make the above work in any way. Instead I added it to C/Users/USER/Documents/Powershell/Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1 as

$env:path = $env:path + ";C:\Program Files\heroku\bin"

[Rrohra]

just restart the ide , it worked

[Jake-LJH]

Make sure to run cmd as an Admin and on your cmd. Then copy the address of Heroku bin. On your command like, enter SET PATH = %bin path% using @GalaxySH input as an example C:\Users\stefa> SET PATH = C:\Program Files\heroku\bin C:\Users\stefa> heroku --version

This method works for me! Make sure to run cmd as Admin then restart vscode and try again. Might prompt to login to Heroku.

[mario-ibarra]

Thanks
