# Installing and setting up Python.
## Windows
### Check if you already have it installed.
- Do WinKey+R
- Then type PowerShell
- Finaly press enter
Next you are going to want to type in:
`python --version`
If you see something like this:
`Python 2.10.7`
Then you have python installed but it may not be the latest version.
### Installing Python
So there are a few options for setting up python.
The first one is from the Microsoft store but i would not recommend that as it is a lot harder to setup integrations with IDE's like VSCode.
So once you have run the installer and set python up you can do something called virtual environments.
