• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Traceback

Please provide the full traceback for your exception in order to help us identify your issue.
While the last line of the error message tells us what kind of error you got,
the full traceback will tell us which line, and other critical information to solve your problem.
Please avoid screenshots so we can copy and paste parts of the message.

A full traceback could look like:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "my_file.py", line 5, in <module>
    add_three("6")
  File "my_file.py", line 2, in add_three
    a = num + 3
        ~~~~^~~
TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

If the traceback is long, use our pastebin.

i did that

[umbral wraith]

?

[twin leaf]

pip install bext

and doesnt work

[umbral wraith]

"doesn't work"

[twin leaf]

pip is not recognised

[latent venture]

I mean the traceback

[umbral wraith]

have even a little more effort

[latent venture]

that command just check what is it

[umbral wraith]

we need to know how it didn't work

[twin leaf]

pip is not recognised

chill out

[latent venture]

use
python -m pip install bext

[umbral wraith]

can you do py -0 please

[twin leaf]

v3.12

[umbral wraith]

it's the only version you have?

[latent venture]

not helpful cuz none of the pip in path anyway

[twin leaf]

yep

[twin leaf]

python not found

[umbral wraith]

it is helpful for me

[latent venture]

py -m pip install bext

[umbral wraith]

use py and py -m pip in place of python and pip

[twin leaf]

okey worked

[umbral wraith]

does it tell you something about installing from the windows store when you do python?

[latent venture]

and if you want to, I recommend reinstalling python with Add to PATH install options

[umbral wraith]

I don't recommend that

[twin leaf]

lemme see

[umbral wraith]

if so, I'll walk you through how to disable that

[twin leaf]

nope only "Python not found"

[umbral wraith]

mmk, just for safe measure I'll walk you through it anyways

in windows search, type app execution alias

and open the first result

[twin leaf]

okley

[umbral wraith]

and make sure these two are disabled

[twin leaf]

what does this do

[umbral wraith]

helps you to avoid installing from the windows store by accident

the best way to install python is from the python.org website

[twin leaf]

yea i did that

[umbral wraith]

okay good

now, with py

if you ever have to download other versions, say maybe you wanna use a site-package and it only supports an older version, then you can specify it with the py command

[latent venture]

side note, you should use Add To PATH options when installing python so you can just use python or pip

[umbral wraith]

py -3.9 your_script.py for example

[umbral wraith]

no

you should not do that, as it may cause issues in the future

[twin leaf]

okay

thanks for all

[umbral wraith]

py + py -m pip is the correct way on Windows

[latent venture]

just remove path from older version when you use new, simple

[umbral wraith]

no

memo, you can use !close to close this post

[latent venture]

or just uninstall the old version if you doesn't want it

[umbral wraith]

I'm talking about installing older versions

[latent venture]

welp, definitely not opening this option on older version :) unless you mainly use it

[twin leaf]

im closing
