'katalon' is not recognized as an internal or external command while executing test suite through command prompt

[milokhande]

I am getting above error in command line if I am trying to execute my test-suite either by command prompt using “Generate Command” option or by using console.properties file.

C:\Users\milokhande.katalon\packages\Katalon_Studio_Windows_64-9.4.0>katalon -propertiesFile=“C:\Users\milokhande\Katalon Studio\API Demo Project\console.properties” runMode=console
