psql doesn't accept any command on windows

I have set the PATH environment and then run psql on command prompt and then whatever command I write nothing happens, it doesn't throw any error message too.

even very basic commands as;

psql -l 


pg_dump -U {user-name} {source_db} -f {dumpfilename.sql}

Do you have any idea?

You have to finish each command with a semicolon (;). Until you do so, psql thinks you're still writing the same (multi-line) command.

Also, psql -l and pg_dump -U {user-name} {source_db} -f {dumpfilename.sql} are not psql commands. These should be ran from your shell (without the semicolons), not from the psql terminal.
