As usual, I am trying to learn something new and at the very beginning, the simplest of tasks is not working. I tried installing Rust on windows using the file on the Rust website. I ran rustc --version and of course it is not recognized. I added a variable to the PATH: C:\users\nick_.cargo/bin because the install of course didn't do it. I rebooted my system and checked ECHO %PATH% and I see the path that I added. Yet when I run rustc --version it is not recognized. A great start to my Rust learning path.
Anyone have any idea how something so fundamentally simple and basic is such a problem?
