Hi,

Can you run the commands to install the tools again and copy the resulting output here?

Best regards,

Marte

I found the chocolatey folders where python appears to be installed. However even when I add this to the PATH, it is still unrecognized by my system. Also it doesn't appear to install pip3 nor west in a recognizable way on my system

Hi,

This varies, but possible locations are directly in your top directory (C:\Python39), in %PROGRAMFILES% (C:\Program Files\Python39) or under C:\ProgramData\chocolatey. If you do not find it in any of these places, can you try to run the install command again and upload the log here?

Best regards,

Marte

When installed from Chocolatey where is the install location? I did a search of my file system and nothing returned

Hi,

The install command should install Python, so you do not have to download it separately. If your system does not find Python, then most likely it is not added to path. Can you please verify that Python is added to path, and that it is correct?

Best regards,
