[Fixed] The term 'Python' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, or operable program

Sometimes after install the Python, we get an issue that Python does not work in Windows PowerShell showing the message that The term 'Python' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, or operable program.

The “Python is not recognized as an internal or external command” error is encountered in the command prompt of Windows. The error is caused when Python’s executable file is not found in an environment variable as a result of the Python command in the Windows command prompt.

Add Python to the PATH Environmental Variable (‘python’ is not recognized as an internal or external command)

‘python’ is not recognized as an internal or external command

We'll show you how to install Python, and fix this error. By adding Python to the PATH environmental variable.

Today, In this Tutorial I am going to show you, how to solve this issue.

The second option is to uninstall and reinstall. Before installing, there's a checkbox at the bottom, "add Python to the PATH". Check that and your python program should work.
