CMake command is not recognized

I have installed CMake and cmake.exe is in C:\Program Files (x86)\CMake\bin But when I run call cmake %CMAKE_BUILD_OPTIONS% through a bat file I am getting an error message

'cmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Should I set this path in environment variable?

You can install cmake with the built-in windows package manager winget by running this in a command line application:

winget install cmake

You'll need to restart your command line application or open another tab for cmake to be accessible after that.

It resolved after adding C:\Program Files (x86)\CMake\bin to environment variable PATH.
