opening Weka from command line

I'm very new to computer coding and data science in general. I'm trying to open Weka and use it on a practice csv data set called weather.arff. The manual I have says to type this into command line:

java weka.classifiers.j48.J48 -t weather.arff

When I open the command line it goes to C:\User\Admin When I type in the above on command line it gives me message

Error: Could not find or load main class weka.classifiers.j48.J48

Might someone give me some advice on how to proceed to make the command line work. Thank you

I think your manual is for an older version of Weka. I have version 3.9.3. In some version the Weka developers have perhaps changed some internal structures and class names.

In a terminal window with a command line prompt, go to the directory where you have Weka installed, that is where the weka.jar file is located. There should be a data/ subdirectory.

cd c:\.....

There, run this command.

java -cp weka.jar weka.classifiers.trees.J48 -t data/weather.nominal.arff (Your data file name could be different)

Then I get this output:
