in thread PAR: pp No Perl script found in input

Thanks,
I found that C:\Perl\site\bin is in my path and that is where pp.bat lives.

C:\Perl\site\bin

.bat is a listed executable file type

.COM .EXE .BAT .CMD .VBS .VBE .JS .JSE .WSF .WSH .MSC

perl -V gave me a bunch of info. Anything in particular I am looking for?

assoc .pl returns .pl=Perl

This is interesting but what does it tell me?

ftype pp.bat

File type 'pp' not found or no open command associated with it.

    what is in pp.bat
      delete that file, and try installing again
        I decided to try again using force. That worked!!!

        Thanks for all your help on this!
        To recap for anyone experiencing a similar problem the solution was to

        delete pp.bat from C:\site\perl\bin

        Re-install pp using force.

        cpan> force install pp
