• Note 2: I give the command "cd C:\Users\barisa.cordova\lib\android\cordova\3.4.0\bin" There is a check_reqs file in that folder. However if i type $ chek_reqs in the command line it says "check_reqs is not recognized as an internal or external command ...."

• Note 3: I opened command propmt (cmd) by right click -> run as administrator What should i do?

Answer 1

If you are sure of yours paths try to type android in cmd if it says: 'xcopy' was not recognized.

then add to your path:

%SystemRoot%\system32; %SystemRoot%; %SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;

In certain cases, don't forget to reboot the PC.

Answer 2

In my case I just needed to add "C:\Windows\System32" to my windows path.
