Harhat-Shorthand issue "The term "hh" is not recognized"

[ErKable]

Good morning everyone,

i'm at lesson 9, specifically at the part in which hardhat-shorthand is being installed, during this process i run into some issues firstly i had a problem with trustendinstaller, because every time I tried to run hh-compile instead of compiling my code it poped-up a window ( https://ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/103736/trouble-getting-hardhat-shorthand-plugin-for-hardhat-to-work-using-hh-short) here the guide that i used, in case someone else will have the same issue.

After solving it, another problem has popped out, basically the terminal doesn't recognize hh has a term/cmdlet and i can't run hh nor hh compile, now i'm trying to solve it but i didn't find a solution yet, does anyone had and solved the same problem?

Thanks in advantage for your answers.

This looks like some random windows BS that would take a lot of time for me to solve :/

For now, I'd just continue without the shorthand.

Which is what i did and what i'm doing xD, i just wanted to try hh but i'll live without it :)

Thats an awesome link, I was wondering why it was doing that for a couple months

[knoori]

have you tried installing hardhat-shorthand using sudo? worked for me. without sudo privileges there might be an issue installing the hh link in the relevant /bin directory

[ErKable]

I didn't think about sudo, I'll try it!

Hii, how can I install it with sudo? Can not do it...

Had the same problem on WSL. Instead of using Yarn, installed it via npm:

npm i -g hardhat-shorthand

Works fine now.

Worked for me as well, Windows 10 with WSL

Worked for me, thanks

I also ended up using npm instead of the yard install, worked

Worked for me as well, thank you

Yes, worked for me as well using npm instead of yarn.
Thanks @cord-ial

Have you added the Yarn install location to your path (as described here)?

export PATH="$(yarn global bin):$PATH"

Unfortunately, I don’t know how to add to your path on Windows. May the force be with you.
