How to Add Python to PATH in Windows 11 | Step-by-Step Guide
In this video, we'll walk you through the process of adding the Python installation location to the PATH environment variable in Windows 11. When you install Python, there’s an option to automatically add Python to the PATH, but if you skip this step during installation, we’ll show you how to do it manually. Adding Python to the PATH allows you to run Python commands from any folder in the file system and ensures that applications which rely on Python can access it properly.
The video starts with an explanation of what happens when Python isn’t added to the PATH and demonstrates the error message you get when you try to run Python commands from the command prompt. We then guide you through opening the folder where Python is installed, making hidden files visible, and copying the correct folder path. After this, we show you how to update the PATH variable through the Environment Variables menu in Windows 11 and how to add both the Python installation folder and the Scripts folder to the PATH.
Finally, we verify the update by running the Python version command in the command prompt to confirm that the PATH was set correctly. By the end of the video, you will know how to easily update your PATH environment variable to access Python from anywhere in Windows 11.
