Powershell has a funky way of looking up programs, with the result that
you have to type the full name for many.

python.exe     - should work, probably. maybe.

Using the Python Launcher helps: it works without extra games

py


If you install the Python from the Microsoft Store it will work more
"predicatably" - python, and python3, will work from both a cmd and a
powershell commandline.  on the other hand, you will have no Python
Launcher on such a setup.
