"NET NOT RECOGNIZED AS A COMMAND" et al

I got this issue and error when trying to execute a NET STOP command
to fix the update not working issue.
"NET NOT RECOGNIZED AS A COMMAND"
OK so I know what the problem is - the PATH isn't working.
I have verified that, BUT the PATH variable appears correct and I
re-entered it.
I was able to type the long path command and it works
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\NET STOP ....
If I type %systemroot% I get back C:\WINDOWS not recognized as a
command.
So the system knows what %systemroot% is
the first item in PATH=%systemroot%\system32;.........
NET.EXE is in system32
BUT typing NET STOP at the command prompt gets me the error.
Even if I open the cmd prompt in the system32 folder I get the same
error.
everything works the same if I rename notepad.exe to test.exe and type
TEST.
WHY & How to fix pplleeaasseeeee.
