I'm using the tor expert bundle for a project and need to configure tor to make a password for control port access to use for an auto switcher. Tried to do tor --hash-password Password but seems like tor is not in the system yet.

If you used a TBB, especially on Windows - of course it's not in your PATH, so just typing tor xxxx will trigger an error. In your TBB install folder find tor.exe(Windows) or tor(non-windows) binary, change directory into this folder and make a command call there. In non-windows use ./tor instead of tor if it still fails. NEVER add tor binary to your PATH variable regardless of the OS you're using : it's insecure.
