In my case, I simply have to locate and add wbem location under "user variables" >> Path on Windows. It is usually present at C:\Windows\SysWOW64\wbem.

I had a problem that I tried to start kafka server, there was no error but the logs were also not printed i.e. no response from server.

I added paths below in path name "path" both in user and system variable just didn't work for me.

C:\Windows\System32\wbem;%PATH%;

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\wbem

C:\Windows\System32\wbem

But doing as below worked perfectly for me:

%SystemRoot%\system32

Add this path in variable name "path" in system variable. And,

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\wbem

Add this to user variable's "path".

Thanks to one of the comment from Priyanka Thakur.

This worked for me as well, basically we are adding the location of cmd terminal(you see it on the title of the terminal) to path variable

I have added the %SystemRoot%\system32 variable to path. Then restart zookeeper and kafka-server. Then it worked.

Deleting the existing Kafka folder and un-tarring the downloaded Kafka{version}.tgz file worked for me.

Caveat: Although this is not an ideal solution but it works for individuals learning/exploring Kafka wanting to just get the things done.

You have to add the path:

 %SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SystemRoot%\System32\;SystemRoot%

in User %PATH% Environment variable, and not in system %PATH% Environment variable.

The issue resolved after including C:\Windows\System32 in PATH variable.
