I'm working on graphs on Jupyter, and as networkx does not provide a good graph representation, I tried to use GraphViz package, and more specifically the package found there : https://github.com/chebee7i/nxpd .
I first imported the nxpd package, but when I tried the draw() function, I faced this error:
InvocationException: GraphViz's executables not found.
I first thought that it as because I did not install the pygraphviz package, which is what I tried to do, but I face now this error:

You are using pip version 8.1.2, however version 9.0.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'python -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.
After searching on StackOverflow, I added these directories:
D:\Program Files (x86)\Anaconda3\Lib\site-packages\graphviz\bin
D:\Program Files (x86)\Anaconda3\Lib\site-packages\graphviz\include\graphviz
to my PATH, but it did not change anything.
Thank you for your help.
Did you add the path in the command prompt using:
or did you add it using the environment variables in System Properties?
I found I needed to add it using the system properties to make it system wide; it still didn't work when only added using the command prompt.
