I'm trying to use python in powershell
Solution 1:
Try setting the path this way:
$env:path="$env:Path;C:\Python27"
Solution 2:
For what's worth, this command did it for me (Python3.3) :
[System.Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", $Env:Path + ";C:\Python33", "Machine")
I just had to restart the Powershell after that.
Solution 3:
$env:path="$env:Path;C:\Python27"
will only set it for the current session. Next time you open Powershell, you will have to do the same thing again.
The [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable()
is the right way, and it would have set your PATH environment variable permanently. You just have to start Powershell again to see the effect in this case.
