I’m just learning Elixir. I had an earlier version of Elixir I installed on Windows 10. Worked perfectly. I’ve since upgraded Windows 11. I installed the latest version of Elixir. Install worked perfectly, no errors. When I do an elixir -v from terminal I get the following. I looked all over and I can’t find a solution.
D:\userdata>elixir -v
{"init terminating in do_boot",{undef,[{elixir,start_cli,[],[]},{init,start_em,1,[{file,"init.erl"},{line,1115}]},{init,do_boot,3,[{file,"init.erl"},{line,823}]}]}}
init terminating in do_boot ({undef,[{elixir,start_cli,[],[]},{init,start_em,1,[{_},{_}]},{init,do_boot,3,[{_},{_}]}]})
Crash dump is being written to: erl_crash.dump...done
Where Next?

Got it to work. I thought when you installed new version of Elixir it would install a compatible version of Erlang. I uninstalled Elixir and Erlang. Installed latest version of Erlang and latest version of Elixir. Remove old Erlang path from path variable. It worked.

I have had this same problem on Windows 10. When upgrading I always just uninstall Elixir, uninstall Erlang then install new version of Elixir.
