How to Add Python to Windows PATH

In this blog post, we will show you how to add Python to your Windows PATH. This is a necessary first step for easy executing Python scripts on your computer. By adding Python to your PATH, you will be able to run the Python interpreter from any command prompt. 

First, you need to find out where your Python interpreter is located. To do this, open the command prompt and type where python. This will print out the location of your Python interpreter. 

Next, you need to add this location to your Windows PATH. To do this, open the Control Panel and go to System > Advanced system settings. On the Advanced tab, click on the Environment Variables button. 

In the window that opens, find the “PATH” variable under “System variables” and click on Edit. Add the location of your Python interpreter to the end of the PATH variable, separating it from the other entries with a semicolon (;). 

In Windows 11, you only need to Edit PATH then click New to enter Python directory.
