In Windows, you will have to set the path to the location where you installed Anaconda3 to.
For me, I installed anaconda3 into C:\Anaconda3. Therefore you need to add C:\Anaconda3 as well as C:\Anaconda3\Scripts\ to your path variable, e.g. set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Anaconda3;C:\Anaconda3\Scripts\.
You can do this via powershell (see above, https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb776899(v=vs.85).aspx ), or hit the windows key → enter environment → choose from settings → edit environment variables for your account → select Path variable → Edit → New.
To test it, open a new dos shell, and you should be able to use conda commands now. E.g., try conda --version.

The newest version of the Anaconda installer for Windows will also install a windows launcher for "Anaconda Prompt" and "Anaconda Powershell Prompt". If you use one of those instead of the regular windows cmd shell, the conda command, python etc. should be available by default in this shell.

When you install anaconda on windows now, it doesn't automatically add Python or Conda.
If you don’t know where your conda and/or python is, you type the following commands into your anaconda prompt
Next, you can add Python and Conda to your path by using the setx command in your command prompt.

Next close that command prompt and open a new one. Congrats you can now use conda and python

If you want to use Anaconda in regular cmd on windows you need to add several paths to your Path env variable.
Those paths are (instead of Anaconda3 the folder may be Anaconda2 depending on the Anaconda version on your PC):
\Users\YOUR_USER\Anaconda3
\Users\YOUR_USER\Anaconda3\Library\mingw-w64\bin
\Users\YOUR_USER\Anaconda3\Library\usr\bin
\Users\YOUR_USER\Anaconda3\Library\bin
\Users\YOUR_USER\Anaconda3\Scripts
\Users\YOUR_USER\Anaconda3\bin
