re-try
mpv should be added to the Path environment variable to use mpv from cmd.
where mpv
setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Program Files\MPV"
Run this command and restart the terminal. Then verify using the where mpv
, mpv --version
command.
# Test folder
$InstallLocation = "C:\Program Files\MPV"
# To add folder to PATH
$persistedPath = [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable('Path', [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::Machine) -split ';'
if ($persistedPath -notcontains $InstallLocation) {
$persistedPath = $persistedPath + $InstallLocation | where { $_ }
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('Path', $persistedPath -join ';', [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::Machine)
}
#To verify if PATH isn't already added
$envPaths = $env:Path -split ';'
if ($envPaths -notcontains $InstallLocation) {
$envPaths = $envPaths + $InstallLocation | where { $_ }
$env:Path = $envPaths -join ';'
}

But why 15/16 lines of code? If our work is being done with one line setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Program Files\MPV"
And your cmds sets the system-wide environment (affects all users) which I don't think is right
setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Program Files\MPV"
but automatically there will be duplicate PATH system variables in the user variables like

I checked my local system, but I couldn't find anything like that. However, if you're facing this issue, you can use the command below. This should remove duplicate paths.

how to create Shortcut mpv from Powershell or cmd?
$sh = (New-Object -ComObject WScript.Shell).CreateShortcut("$env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\MPV.lnk"); $sh.TargetPath = "$env:PROGRAMFILES\MPV\mpv.exe"; $sh.Save()

how to create Shortcut from cmd? and how to add arguments mpv in Shortcut from cmd?
Batch scripts alone do not have built-in capabilities to create Windows shortcuts (.lnk
files) directly. They can create symbolic links using mklink
, but these are not the same as shortcuts.
how to add arguments mpv in Shortcut from powershell?
To pass arguments to the target app when creating a shortcut using PowerShell, you can set the Arguments
property of the shortcut object. See this example:
# Create a new shortcut object
$sh = (New-Object -ComObject WScript.Shell).CreateShortcut("$env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\MPV.lnk")
# Set the path to the executable
$sh.TargetPath = "$env:PROGRAMFILES\MPV\mpv.exe"
# Optionally, set the working directory (if needed)
$sh.WorkingDirectory = "$env:PROGRAMFILES\MPV"
# Set any arguments you want to pass to the executable
$sh.Arguments = "--fullscreen --no-audio" # Example arguments
# Save the shortcut
$sh.Save()
Replace --fullscreen --no-audio
with any arguments.

:roll_eyes:
but if use setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Program Files\MPV"
there are duplicates like this in user variables
without use setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Program Files\MPV"
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps
aftar use setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Program Files\MPV"
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\OpenSSH\;C:\Program Files\MPV
