-If you don't and you're on Windows, check that Rust is in your %PATH% system
-variable: `$ echo %PATH%`. If it isn't, run the installer again, select "Change"
-on the "Change, repair, or remove installation" page and ensure "Add to PATH" is
-installed on the local hard drive.  If you need to configure your path manually,
-you can find the Rust executables in a directory like

+If you don't, that probably means that the `PATH` environment variable
+doesn't include Cargo's binary directory, `~/.cargo/bin` on Unix, or
+`%USERPROFILE%\.cargo\bin` on Windows. This is the directory where
+Rust development tools live, and most Rust developers keep it in their
+`PATH` environment variable, which makes it possible to run `rustc` on
+the command line. Due to differences in operating systems, command
+shells, and bugs in installation, you may need to restart your shell,
+log out of the system, or configure `PATH` manually as appropriate for
+your operating environment.
