You need to extend the PATH environment variable so that it includes the folder where you installed CRYSTALS, e.g. set PATH=%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\crystals;%PATH%

Alternatively use the "Environment Variables" button under System Properties in Control Panel to extend the PATH so that you don't need to keep typing the line above.

To run CRYSTALS, change to the directory containing the data for the compound and type: crystals To run CRYSTALS with a .dsc other than the default crfilev2.dsc append it to the command, e.g: crystals mystructure.dsc
