    BASH command not found on Windows 10


    So, when I try to use the bash command on cmd or PowerShell, I get errors saying that there is no such thing.


    bash : The term 'bash' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check

    the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.


    This is strange as I haven't touched anything that would uninstall it, and I thought it should be installed WITH Windows?

    Before I did a system reset to try and fix some issues that I previously had, it used to work just fine, now it seems to have vanished into thin air.

    I don't understand where the command was gone, and how something that should be always installed with Windows can disappear? It's very frustrating that things like this can happen!


    Do I need to add an environment variable or something? I'd rather not download anything third-party, I'd like to be able for Windows to reinstall it or something.

    Thanks for any help. :

    :)

    GPU-Z what command line parameter ?

    Suggestion: /? (-?) and /help (-help) command-line arguments to show a list of all possible arguments in a small window. *Smile BASH command not found on Windows 10 :)

    Have you tried the steps listed here? Scroll down to "Run native Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" (you can ignore the fact that it's for an Insider Preview build; the steps are the same).
