pybot is not recognized as an internal or external command while running from cmd

Question

I get an issue when running the following command, in cmd:

pybot --version

Also given the correct environmental variable path

Answer 1

Given that downgrading to RF 3.0.2 solved the issue you have possibly had RF 3.1 installed previously. In RF 3.1 old start-up scripts like pybot are removed and it is a backwards incompatible change in RF 3.1.

You can check the release notes.

Old start-up scripts like pybot are removed

Old start-up scripts pybot, jybot, ipybot, jyrebot and ipyrebot have been removed in favor of the generic robot and rebot scripts introduced in Robot Framework 3.0. (#2818)
