What happens if you do the following:

Open the Toolchain Manager, and open bash:

From bash, run the following commands
- cmd
- where cmd

When I run where cmd, I get the following:

siiv@SIIV MINGW64 ~/ncs/v1.6.0
$ where cmd.exe
C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe

Do you have System32 in your environment variables?

[quote user="Rihab"]No board named 'nrf5340dk_cpuapp' found.[/quote]

The error you see now is because you used the wrong board name. Use 'nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp' and not 'nrf5340dk_cpuapp'

Can you try the following:

Open the Toolchain Manager, and open bash:

From bash, go to zephyr/samples/hello_world
Run the command:
- west build -b nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp -p

Please report back to me if it works or not
