      I selected "Add Python 3.6 to PATH" when I installed the program.

      I am able to launch Python from the start button.

      It isn't recognized on the command line.

      See screen shots in the attached Word file.

      A WM_SETTINGCHANGE message gets broadcasted to top-level windows, so Explorer should reload its environment from the registry. Did you start a new command prompt from Explorer?

      Sorry, no I didn't. When I went off to find out how to add Python to the path manually, I found out that opening a new command window would be needed to see any update. I was coming back to say "never mind" when I saw your message.

      Sorry to bother you!
