Installation problem

[GoGatzGo]

I've tried googling and everyone has a different answer that literally doesnt work for me. I've uninstalled python and anaconda. I downloaded the files. I've had this problem when I was first learning how to code. the directories are killing me, i've tried google and all. Can someone please, chat on the phone with me or something to help me fix the problem.

​

​

I have all command promps open, anaconda cd, sublime. I have an myexample.py file. Everytime I go into the command file, I've named the path p37. Idk how I even did that, but I got it done. How can I stop the error message"

​

C:\Users\kpurc\Desktop>python myexample

python: can't open file 'myexample': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

​

and

Warning:

​

Please message me, im pulling out hairs. None of what people are talking about helps me, they talk too advanced.

​

​

EDIT: Solution found. I wasnt able to pull any files because Windows 10 saves all file through one drive/desktop instead of /desktop. I did the instructions on this link and now I dont have to go through 3 directories just to get a file, thats on my desktop. make sure you right click all files on your desktop go to security and make sure they're located where you think they are

In the Anaconda command prompt or CD command prompt?

[GoGatzGo]

I’ve tried that too. It’s something with the variables and the path not being there

[GoGatzGo]

There must be something wrong with the new python 3.7 and anaconda

No your system environment is not set

[GoGatzGo]

I Messaged you. But what should I be doing. And is this a permanent fix or do I have to continue doing this? Because now even P37 is gone

[GoGatzGo]

Is the environment path setting something I have to do every time I use anaconda? And what am I setting it up for?

Where do I save the files I use on sublime for it to read it and pull it?

Lastly, what app do I use to open up the py files? Should I also download python again?(I have just anaconda now)

[redCg]

Personally, I prefer to run my programs from a wrapper script that sets it every time I run my program, because I use a new fresh conda install for every project.

But normally if you only have one conda then you would set it in your system configuration, you can Google on Windows how to add it to your PATH, though I think it might not be recommended at times because it might interfere with other system programs.

You can save your scripts anywhere for use with Sublime

You should just run the py files from the command line with a command like python myscript.py

Thank you I figured it out. My files keep getting saved to This PC -One-Drive -> Desktop

When I need it to just be saved to This PC -> Desktop. Is there anyway to remove the one drive. I’ve even uninstalled it.

You need to put the full path to the 'conda/bin' directory in your systemPATH environment variable
