“Register” an .exe so you can run it from any command line in Windows

Question

How can you make a .exe file accessible from any location in the Windows command window? Is there some registry entry that has to be entered?

Answer 1

The best way to do this is just install the .EXE file into the windows/system32 folder. that way you can run it from any location. This is the same place where .exe's like ping can be found
