What kind of scripts? Batch scripts? Shell scripts?

No. The question you're asking does not make sense at all because the
the terms you use ("run the commands in windows") don't exist or don't
make sense.
"command not found" basically means "command not found". The mechanism
with which cmd.exe finds commands is called a "path". The concept of a
path is the same for Windows, Linux, NetWare and even Programming
Languages (Python, etc.)...
