Windows 10: Cannot open Applications from Program Files with CMD and Powershell

Hello everyone,


I'm trying to open executables/applications from C:\Program Files with CMD and Powershell but they doesn't open. It just doing something like the cd command to the directory where my application is. I'm trying to open Filmora with this directory:


C:\Program Files\Wondershare\Wondershare Filmora\Wondershare Filmora X.exe


I also tried to open from batch file .bat but the same issue. A guy from Microsoft Support tried helping me with other commands and shared my screen but nothing changed.


There I have some images that may help you.






I hope someone will solve my problem because this is for my YouTube video which is supposed to be uploaded before 2021 year.

:)

PowerShell does not launch bash.exe

All,

I am new and trying to learn.

My issue: When I enter bash.exe in a PowerShell cmd window, my PC does not launch the Ubuntu command. I think Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is not in my $ENVath.

Troubleshooting I have done:

1. Reading on the Internet, I can test my $ENVath by typing the following a PowerShell cmd:
   

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> where.exe calc

C:\Windows\System32\calc.exe

It returned the follow:

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> calc

(And the calculator displayed on my PC)

1. Reading on the Internet, I can also test my $ENVath by typing the following a PowerShell cmd:
   

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> where.exe wsl

It returned the follow:

INFO: Could not find files for the given pattern(s).

Here is the output of $ENVath

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> $ENVath

C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\WINDOWS\System32\OpenSSH\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Calibre2\;C:\Program Files\PuTTY\;C:\Program
Files\Microsoft VS Code\bin;C:\Users\user-lenovo595\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps

Question:

What would you suggest as my next step to fix the issue?

Thank you,
