This is a repetition to my previous question

This time i am installing it on windows. I am following these instructions.

Problems : At first, i face this problem.

But my ros2 directory has all the folders (i fear some are missing).

Then I call the local_setup.bat file : call install\local_setup.bat.

When I try to run a demo node : ros2 run demo_nodes_py talker, it gives an error as ROS2 command not found.

Here is a screenshot of my path variables image description in the system variables.

EDIT : output of set.

    C:\WINDOWS\system32>cd C:\dev\ros2\

C:\dev\ros2>call install\local_setup.bat

C:\dev\ros2>ros2 run demo_nodes_py talker

Is ros2 run demo_nodes_py being run in the same cmd.exe window that call install\local_setup.bat was run in? The setup script only sets up the path environment variable for the current shell, so I would expect the system path variable in your screenshot to be unchanged.

Yes, I am running the ros2 run command in the same shell where i called the local_setup.bat file

Would you mind copy/pasting the output of set in the cmd.exe where call install\local_setup.bat has been called but ros2 can't be found?
