Download from where? (There are a number of distributions available,
including ones in the M$ "app" store, Visual Studio, etc.)

"Add Python..." is a step when RUNNING the installer. It should not
appear when DOWNLOADING the installer.

The general sequence is:

Download the installer file for the distribution.

RUN the installer program to install Python (and any other stuff
the distribution includes)

Hide the installer program/icons -- since they do NOT run Python
itself. Pure Python is run from a command line/shell interface; it is NOT a
graphical IDE.

Hello and welcome,

Sadly I don't know about Eset internet security, or why you do not get the 
choice of letting the installer do that, but you could try to add Python 
manually to your PATH like it is described in 
https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/how-to-add-python-to-windows-path/ .

But maybe some more windows savvy people than me might chime in to offer better 
advice ;-) .

Cheers

Lars

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am working on a PC with windows 10 and use Eset internet security. I have
tried downloading  python 3.10.7 for windows. Using a tutorial I see that a
checkbox should appear called "Add python 3/7 to path" but this does not
appear whichever version I try to download. I wondered if Eset was stopping
this somehow and tried it with Eset switched off but the result is the same.
Can you help?

Best regards,

Carl Harrison.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am working on a PC with windows 10 and use Eset internet security. I have
tried downloading  python 3.10.7 for windows. Using a tutorial I see that a
checkbox should appear called "Add python 3/7 to path" but this does not
appear whichever version I try to download. I wondered if Eset was stopping
this somehow and tried it with Eset switched off but the result is the same.
Can you help?

Best regards,

Carl Harrison.

I assume you typed "python".

And I assume that it is because you have python 2.7.17 installed and its on
your PATH.

To run python 3.9.1 do this in cmd.exe

py -3.9

It is also likely that just typing "py" will run python 3.9.1.
Typing "py -2" will run python 2.

Run this to find all the versions of python that you have available:

py -0

Please, copy-paste all the content of your terminal (I presume this is wht you 
name cmd.exe).

Question - problem downloading Python

[christine tiscareno]

I installed in my lap-top your latest version of Python (3.9.1), yet when I
go to cmd.exe   to check,  I get that I have Python 22.7.17 ???

Why? What should I do to get the latest version?

  I tried going back to fix problems and it does not fix it, that is how I
got your email.

How can I get the latest Python version (3.9.1), instead of what I'm
getting (22.7.17)?

Thank you for your time.
