TeXStudio: Any command is an "Undefined control sequence"

Question

I'm trying to configure TeXStudio (using Windows) with MiKTeX. I configured the path to latex.exe and pdflatex.exe in Options\Commands and still I get errors compiling any .tex.

Every command (like \title, \usepackage, \begin) produces an error: "Undefined control sequence".

Please provide a snapshot of your setting or MWE of what you are compiling. — azetina, Apr 11 '14 at 21:30
Hello @azetina I've updated my original post. Please note that the \bin\ folder is already in my path. — Laís Minchillo, Apr 11 '14 at 21:39

Your image shows the pdflatex command is set up to use pdftex.exe (plain tex) not pdflatex.exe (latex) so latex commands are not defined.
