Please don't forget that you are walking on new ground: To my knowledge, nobody did run LyX on windows without using the installer up to now. Even Uwe (who builds the windows executables since many years) creates all needed settings with the installer, and copies newly built executables into the installation for testing. Therefore, the only place where the python executable could be put into the PATH would be when you run the python installer. IIRC it has an option to update PATH, which you can select or not. Georg
