Meteor: cannot find the path specified

Input: meteor --settings settings.json
meteor
meteor create myapp

So I tried these inputs, but I get this error:
The system cannot find the path specified

It’s weird. One day Meteor was working all fine and then the next, it just didn’t work.

I’m using Meteor 1.3.4.4.

I tried uninstalling Meteor and then reinstalling it, and it still doesn’t work.
I also checked environment variables to see if it is included in the path, and it is.

Does anyone know how to fix this?
Would really appreciate it! Thanks!

An issue was opened about this recently - maybe add your details to that issue to help Meteor maintainers track the cause down:

Hmm, I think this might be a similar situation, but the weird part is it was already installed on my laptop. It’s been working since Dec 2015, but only a few days ago when I tried running it again, it just didn’t work.

I’m having the same issue with Meteor 1.4 on Windows Server 2012.

Meteor will work fine for a day, then the next day it will be ‘missing’.

I can try to navigate to the directory where meteor.bat is, and try to run meteor.bat from there, but it still doesn’t work.

Here is a screenshot demonstrating the error:
