Here are some things to check:

# Make sure the path to ruby.exe is in your path system environment
variable
C:\>path
PATH=c:\ruby\ruby186\bin;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem

# Make sure .rb and .rbw are set in the pathext system environment
variable
C:\>echo %pathext%
.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.RB;.RBW;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH;.tcl;.PSC1

# If it's a problem with these system environment variables, make sure you
set it in the gui, and not with the set command.  Otherwise the
changes won't persist. Here's some info on that:

What is the output of these commands?

  ruby -v

  ruby -e 'puts "hello world!"
