'php' is not recognized as an internal or external command in terminal

I installed php5 on monday and it was working with no problems and it's been working up until today when I tried to do a "php artisan migrate" command in the terminal and it said it wasn't recognized, I have the php5 folder saved in "C:\" and hasn't been moved since installation.enter image description here

Kindly try php -v from the command prompt. If you get something like PHP 5.6.10 as output, then your php exists in your path.

In case your PATH is not set, you can use the SET command to set your PHP for that particular instance. Or you can go to My Computer --> Properties --> Advanced --> Environment Variables and append your php directory to the PATH variable.

Thanks!

Probably You should append directory path of your php.exe to windows PATH environment variable. But be careful by changing this variables. Some information can be found here: http://www.itechtalk.com/thread3595.html or just use Google for more examples.
