Joey, there should be a folders called "bin" and "scripts" (or something like that) in your Python installation. One of them, I expect, will contain a django-admin.exe. (Or .bat? Or .cmd? Whatever.) Adding these folders to your PATH environment variable (don't ask me how) will solve these problems. IIRC you can do this for PowerShell specifically or for Windows in general, whichever you think is best. > >> django-admin : *The term 'django-admin' is not recognized as the name >> of a >> cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.
