For reasons which someone wiser in the ways of Powershell will have to describe, you have to run some programs programs with a more qualified name. That is, try running: python.exe Alternatives: the Python launcher doesn't have this limitation. Try running: py If you used the python.org installer, the Python Launcher is recommended anyway. The Python install from the Microsoft Store also doesn't have that limitation, if you install that you should be able to run by typing just python There's probably some simple setup to make it work as we might expect/wish in Powershell... but the point is: there's nothing *wrong* with your setup. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
