Locate Python Installation Directory:
-
Identify where Python is installed on your system. Common locations:
-
Windows:ย
C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\PythonXX -
macOS/Linux: Use commandย
which python3ย orยwhich pythonย in terminal.
-

-
Open Start Menu, searchย “Edit the system environment variables”, open it.
-
Clickย Environment Variables

Open a new terminal or command prompt and run:
bashpython --version
pip --version
Both should print versions without error.
-
-
Fix Common Issues:
-
Useย
python -m pipย instead ofยpipย to avoid path conflicts. -
Remove duplicate or older Python paths from PATH to prevent confusion.
-
Reinstall Python and during setup, checkย “Add Python to PATH”ย to automate this.
