You have a 32 bit build, so the information I gave you is wrong.

Try:

1. Run the CMD as Administrator. Maybe it is a permission problem.

old message (wrong information):

I have 5.24.0 and the bug is not there. (work-machine, sorry not able to install your version to check your bug)

However, when you run a script, it is not run through the PATH but through file association (run extension XYZ with this exe).

So my guess is that you have a 64 bit Perl, but running on a 32 bit CMD prompt

(There is both a 32bit and 64bit version of the command processor (cmd.exe))

The 32 bit version is: C:\Windows\sysWOW64\cmd.exe
