Error: could not find or load main class Hello

Question

I write simple java program in notepad and try to run the program using cmd but got the "Error: could not find or load main class Hello".

I able to run program in eclipse but when i try to run using cmd then i face this problem.

class Hello
{
     public static void main(String args[])
     {
         System.out.println("Hello Parth...");
     }
}

Have you compiled using `javac` before running the `java` command — dumbPotato21, Feb 01 '17 at 06:39

How are you invoking Java and in which directory are you at that point? — Erwin Bolwidt, Feb 01 '17 at 06:43

@ErwinBolwidt File Hello.java is in c:\Users\parth\Desktop\java — Parth Patel, Feb 01 '17 at 06:45
@Shashwat I already write comment regarding this. I already read all the answers of similar questions. — Parth Patel, Feb 01 '17 at 06:47
@ParthPatel Are you sure you are at the same directory where the class is located ? If using **windows** you can hold`shift` and right click on any empty space on the folder, and choose **open command window here** and then try executing, with the `java` command — dumbPotato21, Feb 01 '17 at 06:50
@Shashwat i'm in the same directory and run from where the class file is located. — Parth Patel, Feb 01 '17 at 06:57

After all i found the answer.

I set Path manually. So i remove CLASSPATH, CATALINA_HOME, CATALINA, JAVA_HOME after that i restart my computer.

Finally my program run.

If any one face this problem then please try my way.
