Solution

  • You also need the following line in your path variable:

    C:\Users\cse_s\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\

    The usual ways to check if the install is correct is as follows:

    C:\Users\charl>python --version
Python 3.12.3

C:\Users\charl>python -V
Python 3.12.3

    With Python Launcher installed:

    py -V
