Receiving an error when trying to run pub

Question

In VSCode and trying to run the following:

dart pub upgrade

I get the following error:

Error: Error when reading 'pub': No such file or directory

However, my flutter file seems fine. Flutter Doctor output below:

[✓] Flutter (Channel stable, 3.3.4, on macOS 12.6 21G115 darwin-x64, locale en-US)
[✓] Android toolchain - develop for Android devices (Android SDK version 28.0.3)
[✓] Xcode - develop for iOS and macOS (Xcode 14.0.1)
[✓] Chrome - develop for the web
[✓] Android Studio (version 4.1)
[✓] VS Code (version 1.72.2)
[✓] Connected device (3 available)
[✓] HTTP Host Availability

Any idea how I can resolve this? Thanks!

@MrShakila I get this whenever trying to use any Pub commands but not sure what is causing this — PJQuakJag

Is there a way to delete all potential versions of dart and redownload it?

try creating a .bashrc file in your user's folder.

Then add the following:

PATH=$PATH:/path/to/dart/installation/bin/folder
export PATH

This can happen when you have installed Dart-sdk two times. One time as a windows installer, and the other through chocolatey for instance. Uninstall the one you have in "Add/Remove programs", or at least make sure you only have one, and it should work.
