    I suggest that you switch to a user account that doesn't have single
    quotes in the name. Using a name that contains single quotes is asking
    for trouble. In most command-line shells, which includes PowerShell
    (but not CMD), a literal (verbatim) string is contained by single
    quotes. The shell usually consumes the quote character if it's not
    escaped. See the following sections of the PowerShell documentation:

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_quoting_rules?view=powershell-7.2#single-quoted-strings

    ����So basically, I get, "The term '...\python.exe' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script, file, or operable program... At line: 1 char: 3." It works the first way I showed with Code Runner, but the second or original way doesn't
    work. What if I don't want to use Code Runner? Any help in fixing this problem would be greatly appreciated. Sorry if certain things are unclear as this is my first time using Python.


    What happens if you change the system to use the "command" shell INSTEAD OF PowerShell?

    PowerShell may not honor the same environment variables.
