I then checked if miktex was in my path. I see c:\texmf\miktex\bin in my path.
Anyone have another suggestion?
OK if that works, assure that the installation folder of LyX and all subfolders have write permissions for "everybody".
If this is not the case, you have to reconfigure LyX again after adjusting the permissions.
At last you can run LyX by the console command
lyx -dbg 3
to have an extra debug window. Now call Edit -> Reconfigure and look what happens in the debug window.
