Whenever you run anything from the command prompt, you either need to in the folder that contains the file you're trying to run, or more commonly make sure the path to the folder that contains the file you're trying to run is in your environment Path.<br />
<br />
From the command prompt, type &quot;Path&quot; and press enter. It will show you your path so you can if it's set correctly (my guess is it's not!)

I'm running the Command Prompt as an Administrator, but when I go to do the command, "symfony new project" I get an error that says, "'symfony' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

How do you install Symfony?

PHP is a widely-used server-side scripting language especially suited for web development, powering tens of millions of sites from Facebook to personal WordPress blogs. PHP is often paired with the MySQL relational database, but includes support for most other mainstream databases. By utilizing different Server APIs, PHP can work on many different web servers as a server-side scripting language.

Symfony is a PHP web application framework for MVC applications. Symfony provides an architecture, components and tools for developers to build complex web applications faster. Symfony is aimed at building robust applications in an enterprise context by speeding up the creation and maintenance of web applications and replacing repetitive coding tasks. It has a low performance overhead used with a bytecode cache and gives developers full control over the configuration.
