I want to flush dns, so I go to cmd and type ipconfig /flushdns and I get the following error.

Quote:
'ipconfig' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.


Even help is not recognized... the version is 2.1.2600.

Thanks, the following solved it.

c:\windows\system32\ipconfig /flushdns

I'm curious why that path isn't in your default environment variables. It is by default. By that I mean c:\windows\system32
Did you remove that path on purpose?
