I try to install PHPMD on Windows computer using the comments below

After installed PHPMD, I am getting the below error when I am trying to use PHPMD on Windows command prompt

Don't know if you got your problem fixed, but I had the same issue today and found a solution that works for me.

You need to edit the last line in your phpmd.bat file. When installed it looks like this:

"%PHPBIN%" "@php_bin@\phpmd" %*

And you need to update the @php_bin@ part to reflect the path to your phpmd file. Could be something along the lines of:

"%PHPBIN%" "C:\xampp\htdocs\project\vendor\phpmd\src\bin\phpmd" %*
