I have some program in many places (it is the java command)..
I am starting this command from CMD. the problem is, I need to know exactly the path of the java command being run..
(If you know unix, I need a command such as which ).
Thanks.

Does Which for Windows help?

There is no need to install WHICH, as Windows has a native command that does the same things, called WHERE.
It is a native command on Vista onwards, but can be added from the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit on earlier versions of Windows.

There is not an exact equivalent of "Unix's which" in Windows, but that does not mean there is no solution ;) Check out the following link:

Because time ago I could not found an adequate alternative of "which" command for windows, I implemented a simple replacement in python featuring also partial matches of command names:

Hope you find it useful :)

You can make an which alias to where if you want. – paradroid – 2015-11-04T15:50:10.810
