Try python -v. – Anaksunaman – 2019-06-27T10:44:41.827

@Anaksunaman yields the same result....nothing! – AkaiShuichi – 2019-06-27T11:58:08.787

What are the results of where python? – Anaksunaman – 2019-06-27T12:21:51.880

@Anaksunaman It is returning the path to python.exe – AkaiShuichi – 2019-06-27T13:10:25.017

What if you enter python --version into powershell.exe, instead of cmd.exe? – GordonAitchJay – 2019-06-27T13:16:28.090

@GordonAitchJay The command is working fine in Powershell. Returns 'Python 3.7.3' as expected – AkaiShuichi – 2019-06-27T13:18:23.660

1Interesting. There must be something up with your cmd.exe settings. Try resetting them to their defaults (via the menu you get when you click the top-left icon). Also, what do you get if you enter python --version into ps (without the .exe)? – GordonAitchJay – 2019-06-27T13:23:15.250

Have you tried ``` python3 --version
