RubyInstaller by default will not associate the .rb scripts or add
Ruby to your PATH. You need to check the two boxes during installation
that tells you "associated .rb and .rbw" and "Add Ruby to the PATH"

You can install over your old installlation and check these.

Please remember to close any existing command prompt Window as PATH
changes do not propagate inside them.
