How to install pio properly (The term 'pio' is not recognized) #985

It sounds like you only have the PlatformIO IDE extensions installed. There are detailed docs on how to link those to be usable as commandline, ahem, commands.

It’s really just a simple method of adding the extension’s binaries to your PATH environment variable. On my Linux laptop, it was a simple export PATH=$PATH:/home/norman/.platformio/penv/bin in my .profile file.

HTH

Cheers,
Norm.
