When I try to compile with .NET, I receive error: 'CSC' is not recognized as
an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. My browser
is updated, I installed .NET twice to be sure it is properly installed. How
can I be sure the path to the C# compiler is present in the path setting of
my PC, or can anyone help me?

It sounds like you haven't set the path up - it isn't set up by default
or anything. csc should be in
c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322

(or the equivalent where Windows could be WINNT, and the version could
be different). Just put that directory in your path.
