[FIXED] Where is XAMPP's Shell?

Issue

I am using the latest version of XAMPP with XAMPP control panel v2.5 (9 May 2007). I want to access the command line to run php -q htdocs\path\to\file.php.

Problem: On my XAMPP control panel, I do not see the Shell button that will bring up the command line interface. How can I access the shell, or is there another way to run the PHP file?

Solution

If you have php.exe's directory in your PATH environment variable, you can simply open a command line window (Start > Run > cmd), go in your PHP script directory and launch it with php yourscript.php.
