title: Confusion with Java's "bin" directory in Windows' Path Variable - How can I fix this?
body: <p>So on my server running Windows Server 2008 x64 R2 I installed the Java JDK 7 Update 5.
  I added "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_05\bin" to the System "Path" variable.</p>
  
  <p>Now in console, certain Java executables like java.exe work, but others like javac.exe only work whenever I'm actually in that "bin" directory.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone have a clue what I did wrong and how I can fix this?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: Whenever I enter 'javac' it returns:</p>
  
  <pre><code>'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
  operable program or batch file.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I type 'PATH', I get:</p>
  
  <pre><code>PATH=C:\PROGRA~2\PARALL~1\Plesk\ADDITI~1\Perl\site\bin;C:\PROGRA~2\PARALL~1\Ples
