The path is defined, its just that the Program Files folder has got spaces in it. It may be that the previous install of Dart is taking precedence over the Chocolatey install.

Can you confirm that running where dart in the command prompt is showing C:\tools\dart-sdk\bin\dart.exe? If its not happening then try these steps:

  1. Uninstall the earlier install of Dart, the one in C:\Program Files...
  2. Try adding C:\tools\dart-sdk\bin to your Path in Environment Variables.
  3. Run where dart to confirm the correct path is showing

Or you could just remove all installs of Dart, including Chocolatey's one and reinstall using Chocolatey. Should fix the path 🤞
