Hi..\
I have installed [java](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12214/web-development-company-in-india-laid-on-the-foundation-of-concrete-java-programming) on my machine which is jdk1.6.

Then by using [command](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/178/synchronous-and-asynchronous-command-execution-in-c-sharp-dot-net) [window](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/161285/how-does-the-window-console-object-work-in-javascript) I am try to [compile](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/2316/how-to-views-compile-in-mvc) it but it display a [message](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/12802/show-confirmation-message-yes-or-no-in-asp-dot-net) "javac: command not found.". Can any one tell me why this message display while I have installed jdk. How can I [remove](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/story/4554/8-harmful-weeds-to-remove-from-garden) this message.\
I had written following command.\
