Answer 1

Nothing above worked for me, but this is what did for community 64bit v3.0.9

If you didn't leave "Automatically start DataStax Cassandra Community Service" checked when installing you'll want to reinstall and leave it checked.

Goto C:\Program Files\DataStax Community and rename the file cassandra.ymal.orig to cassandra.yaml and leave it in the DataStax Community folder and start Cassandra CQL Shell.

Note: I don't know if it's needed but I backed up my cassandra.ymal.orig before doing this.

Also, if anyone could shed light on what the command for windows would be to start Cassandra that would be awesome. It seems at least in part this issue is the service just won't start
