I installed .NET through JetBrains Rider. It appears as installed:

And my applications can be built under .NET8.0 and run under .NET8.0 within Rider.

I located the .exe (which was created while using Rider) bin/Debug/net8.0/name_of_my_app.exe and wanted to run it with the terminal. So I opened a terminal and did name_of_my_app.exe ; it said "You must install .NET to run this application." So, I looked for any dotnet.exe I could find, but the only two I could find were not .NET8.0:

 7.0.10 at [C:\Program Files\JetBrains\JetBrains Rider 2023.3.3\lib\ReSharperHost\windows-x64\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App]

So my question is: where the hell is my .NET8.0 dotnet.exe so I can add it to my PATH environment variable and not have to start an IDE to run my application?

I am using Windows 11 and JetBrains Rider 2023.3.3 .
