Hi @Syed zabiullah ,
When you do C:\test\test\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\python.exe py --version, you are executing python.exe and providing "py" as an argument.
I think this is not correct.
use the following:
C:\test\test\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\python.exe --version
I also found this information in StackOverflow:
python is the Python executable of the Python installation which you have selected as a default during the installation. This basically put the path to that version inside the PATH, so that the executable is directly available.
py is the Python launcher which is a utility that comes with Python installations on Windows. It gets installed into C:\Windows\ so it’s available without requiring PATH modifications. The Python launcher detects what Python versions are installed on your machine and is able to automatically delegate to the right version. By default, it will use the latest Python version that is on your machine. So if you have installed 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6, running py will launch 3.6. You can also specify a different version by doing e.g. py -3.5 to lauch 3.5, or py -2 to launch the latest Python 2 version on your machine.
so you can also try to do C:\Windows\py --version
Let me know if this helps!
