Hi! I've just downloaded and installed Python 3.10.7 (64-bit) for Windows
10 from python.org. I'm quite new but, I've already downloaded and installed
Visual Studio Code as well. I have included the two paths for python under User
Variables.
C:\Users\It'sMeLil'Loui\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\Scripts\, and
C:\Users\It'sMeLil'Loui\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\. I verified
that python is recognized in the Command Prompt and PowerShell and installed
the necessary extensions for python in Visual Studio Code. I created a test
python file in the directory of D:\Projects\Python\Test\HelloWorld.py, and
opened it in Visual Studio Code. I also restarted my laptop after all of this.
Under the arrow used to run the code, I clicked "Run Code" (since I have Code
Runner by Jun Han installed), and it worked just fine, displaying the output in
the terminal.
Code:
print("Hello, world.")
input("Press Enter to continue...")
Output in Terminal when using Code Runner:
Windows PowerShell

Try the new cross-platform PowerShell https://aka.ms/pscore6
PS D:\Projects\Python\Test> python -u "d:\Projects\Python\Test\HelloWorld.py"
Hello, world.
Press Enter to continue...
PS D:\Projects\Python\Test>
However, under the arrow to run code, when I click "Run Python File", I get
this error message:
Windows PowerShell
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
Output in Terminal when normally running it:
Try the new cross-platform PowerShell https://aka.ms/pscore6
PS D:\Projects\Python\Test> &
C:/Users/It'sMeLil'Loui/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python310/python.exe
d:/Projects/Python/Test/HelloWorld.py
& : The term
'C:/Users/ItsMeLilLoui/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python310/python.exe' is
not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script
file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was
included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound:
(C:/Users/ItsMeL...n310/python.exe:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException
PS D:\Projects\Python\Test>
So basically, I get, "The term '...\python.exe' is not recognized as the
name of a cmdlet, function, script, file, or operable program... At line: 1
char: 3." It works the first way I showed with Code Runner, but the second or
original way doesn't work. What if I don't want to use Code Runner? Any help in
fixing this problem would be greatly appreciated. Sorry if certain things are
unclear as this is my first time using Python.
Thanks,
LouisAden
