'Heroku not recognized as an internal or external command (Windows)
Following this heroku tutorial to launch an app on heroku. But when I use the command heroku create, it says it's not recognized. I added C:\Program Files\Heroku to my PATH. How do I fix this?
Solution 1:[1]
You're probably using an old version or the deprecated package 'heroku-cli'. The new one is just called 'heroku'
Uninstall that by
npm uninstall -g heroku-cli
Then install the new package
npm i -g heroku
And now all your works will go perfectly.Just try heroku login and any other heroku command.

You can follow the Getting Started on Heroku with Python .
My Heroku.exe PATH is in C:\Program Files\Heroku\bin .
Make sure your Heroku's Path is correct.
Or you can re-install the heroku.

1.Set the Path in environment variables.
2.I created a separate path: Variable name : Heroku, Variable Path as C:\Program Files\Heroku\bin. But it didn't work
3.so i added the same path in Path variable which is already created and it worked.
4.My Heroku.exe PATH is in C:\Program Files\Heroku\bin . Make sure your Heroku's Path is correct. Hope it helps.

I had this problem, after installing the heroku cli, i had to restart my commend prompt for a quick fix
Solution 5:[5]
I had similar problem. But closing old command prompt and opening new command prompt worked for me.
Solution 6:[6]
After installed heroku, just close the vs code. Reopen vs code, on the terminal type,
heroku --version
Solution 7:[7]
Just add C:\Program Files\heroku\bin to your Environment Variables.
Make sure to close and re-open the shell or cmd.
Solution 8:[8]
In my case Restarting the IDE fixed.
Solution 9:[9]
Go to bin directory and run heroku application and then type "heroku login " for login or other commands
Really don't know why Powershell not identifying Heroku ,but the above hint will work.
Solution 10:[10]
I can see the same issue with Windows 10 Home.
- Open Windows Powershell
- type $env:PATH
Is your Heroku path actually there? If not follow these steps:
- Open the Start Search, type in “env”, and choose “Edit the system environment variables”
- Click the “Environment Variables…” button
Now check values for your Heroku inside both "User" and "System" "Path" variables.
Add your Heroku path where not listed. Works immediately with no any system restart.
Solution 11:[11]
I faced this issue when I tried heroku command inside a command line window that was opened prior to installing the heroku CLI.
Simply running the command in a new command line window solved it for me.
Solution 12:[12]
Use this it works for me "C:\Program Files\heroku\bin\heroku.cmd" create
Solution 13:[13]
Based on the documentation, This installation method is required for users on ARM and BSD. You must have node and npm installed already. So just install the package using npm.
npm install -g heroku
Then in your terminal, type heroku --version will surely work fine.
Solution 14:[14]
I encountered this issue. I closed all existing command prompt/terminal and opening new command prompt, it did the work.
Solution 15:[15]
If anyone experiencing this error with 'C:\Program' not recognized with heroku pg:psql -c then just do :
echo "yourcommand" | heroku pg:psql
Solution 16:[16]
Install Heroku CLI through Scoop and you would be able to solve your issue
Solution 17:[17]
Set the path in Environment variables.
C:\Program Files\Heroku\bin
After setting path, still the same errors occurs.
Restart the system and sometimes this happens. Try this also if setting path didn't work.
Solution 18:[18]
oh no worries u may have forgotten the path or haven't installed heroku yet
npm install -global heroku
or try deleting the previously depreciated package and reinstall it again
npm uninstall -global heroku-cli
Solution 19:[19]
Re-installing Heroku CLI works. If not, configure in environment variables
Solution 20:[20]
Try going to My computer-> Properties -> advanced System Settings
In the advanced System Settings, go to
Environment variables
Path edit
new
C:\Program Files\heroku\bin
This is working for me.
Solution 21:[21]
Late arrival tip: if you have a separate administrator account (which you use to install new products), note that it probably added the path to your admin account but not your other account(s), which you actually intend to run it from. Add the path to the "system variables" section instead of the admin user section.
Solution 22:[22]
If you have checked in PATH that C:\Program Files\Heroku\bin is set. You need to close and reopen your terminal again
Solution 23:[23]
- Download heroku CLI from here
- Install it
- Close all the terminal tabs and restart your IDE Boom
Solution 24:[24]
It worked with git bash.
Run this command:
npm install -g heroku
on git bash, then try heroku login on bash.
Solution 25:[25]
There was another post here Heroku won't load within Visual Studio Code I did that and it worked for me. After uninstalling and npm i -g heroku
Solution 26:[26]
Close the command prompt and open it again. That fixed my issue.
Solution 27:[27]
Just restart the the PC after setting the path.. It should work.
Solution 28:[28]
This worked for me:
$'curl https://cli-assets.heroku.com/install.sh | sh'
Solution 29:[29]
In my case closing and reopening VS code and terminal worked.
Solution 30:[30]
