This is most likely the problem. Type "assoc .pl" to get the perl type (probably Perl) and then "ftype Perl" to see the associated command: C:\>assoc .pl .pl=Perl C:\>ftype Perl Perl=c:\perl\bin\perl.exe "%1" %* Also, you can add .PL to the PATHEXT variable if you don't want to have to use the extension to run the script in the future.
