HI,
Today i tried to install FDS-SMV for Windows (64-bit) from https://pages.nist.gov/fds-smv/downloads.html website. After downloading i started installation.
At that time it started unzipping the files and i got one cmd window. and i typed yes. But it is showing "'tasklist' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file".
Install FDS 6.7.5 and Smokeview 6.7.15

*******************************************************************************************

Install in C:\Program Files\firemodels and stop any
instances of fds, smokeview, mpiexec, and/or hydra_service?

yes - standard installation (use default answer for all questions)
no - customize installation (install to a different location)
quit - stop installation

yes, no or quit?:yes
'tasklist' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.

*******************************************************************************************

I am using Windows 10 Home Single Language Edition. Version - 21H1. And i am Administrator of my laptop.

Please help me to solve this issue. Thankyou :)

I've just completed the install from https://pages.nist.gov/fds-smv/downloads.html and it worked seamlessly on Windows 10.  You might be interested in reading the following link.  https://helpdeskgeek.com/how-to/fix-not-recognized-as-an-internal-or-external-command/  I suspect that your problem is local to your OS installation.
