LyX doesn't launch

C:\Users\John>lyx.exe
'lyx.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

LyX doesn't launch

Hello community,

I ran across a strange issue recently. When working on my thesis, LyX suddenly would not compile the .pdf anymore - pressing the preview button started a process for about two seconds, then stopped, without any error messages or .pdf output. I subsequently tried reconfiguring Lyx ...

As I needed more subsections than just the pre-defined ones, I started using paragraphs instead. I defined them to be ...
