Using Windows 11 and I downloaded the x86 architecture of .NET

Description

In order to check if everything had been installed correctly, I used the "dotnet" command as instructed in a new terminal on VS Code. Doing so resulted in me getting the following error message:

• dotnet : The term 'dotnet' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

How should I go about getting the terminal to recognize this command?

dotnet --info

• dotnet --info

•

Have you tried restarting VS Code? If you type dotnet --info on a terminal outside of VS Code (command prompt or powershell), does it still say that that dotnet was not recognized?
