Where is pandoc installed on Windows?

Tags:

pandoc

I have a Windows 8 machine and I just ran the pandoc-1.13-windows.msi installer. The installer did not let me choose an install path, but it finished without error. I cannot run pandoc from the command line so I'm guessing I have to update the path. But I have no idea where pandoc was installed. Where is pandoc installed?

If you choose to install for All Users, Pandoc is instead installed to C:\Program Files (x86)\Pandoc (you can change this location by clicking on the Advanced button).

In either case, when the Windows Setup program has finished installing the software, it should print a message showing the version of Pandoc and its installation path.


*Tested using the 64-bit installer for Windows 7 with Pandoc versions 1.19.2.1 to 2.1.3.
