We have downloaded and run DotNetCore.1.0.1-SDK.1.0.0.Preview2-003133-x64.exe. After having closed and reopened our command prompt, running dotnet gives the following output.

The term 'dotnet' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

We have tried the following:

  1. Uninstall all versions of Visual Studio.
  2. Uninstall all versions of .NET Core.
  3. Repair C++ Redistributable 2015 x86 & x64
  4. Restart the computer.
  5. Then reinstall the .NET Core SDK.

This is the contents of C:/Program Files/dotnet

  Microsoft .NET Core 1.0.1 - SDK 1.0.0 Preview 2-003133 (x64).swidtag

Our PATH includes C:\Program Files\dotnet\

Also ensure that "C:\Program Files\dotnet" is part of the "path" system environment variable.

After uninstalling previous SDK versions, it had disappeared from mine.
