Either you don't have a JDK installed or you do, but it wasn't properly added to your path.

Note that the Java Runtime Environment (which you do have installed) does not include a java compiler, you'll need the Java Development Kit for that.

Start by navigating to your JDK bin file outside of the command prompt. On the top you should see all of the directories you went through to get there. Right click on that, copy it, and go to your control panel.

In the control panel, you should click on "System and security." From there, click "System."

On the left, you should click on "Advanced system settings." Click "Environment variables" at the bottom of the screen that pops up.

Where it says "System variables," scroll down and look for the "Path" variable. Double click that, and next to "Variable value," type a semicolon then paste what you copied.

Hope that worked.
