If you mean the PATH environment variable then that is incorrect. The compilers I have used from the command-line all use the -L option to specify path to libraries …

If you are using an IDE then we need to know which one because they all do things a little differently.

Check the paths in the project settings, and add to the linker search path the location where that library is stored.
