Yes, by default it will work. When installed for all users, the launcher is installed in the Windows directory. For a per-user install, the launcher is installed in a subdirectory of the user's program files, and the installer adds the launcher's directory to PATH. > Concerning dealing with `python` vs `python3` it is a matter of habit, and I > find the > latter option more reliable and missing it under Windows. On Windows, I don't have any Python version permanently set in PATH. It's set by the current virtual environment. Even in Unix, an active virtual environment has a `python` command for Python 3. The issue is only with the system `python` command (i.e. /usr/bin/python), which I don't use directly. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
