python is not recognized as an internal or external command

0 votes

 I have made a little loop thing with it but the problem is, when I go to cmd and type python testloop.py I get the error:

'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command

I have tried setting the path but no avail.

Here is my path:

C:\Program Files\Python27

As you can see, this is where my Python is installed. I don't know what else to do. Can someone help?

There are multiple ways you can use:

1)Use py instead of python in the command prompt.
2)Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information in the command prompt
3)In Python installer check the box add python to environment variables. Make sure to restart powershell and command prompt.
4) Or the Python Folder to windows path
