I cannot use Python 3.8 on my PC with installed Python 3.7.
Is it possible to update the existing Python 3.7 without reinstalling Python

Conflicts problems.
Thankyou

If the question is about updating Python 3.7 'in place' (and not upsetting any applications or systems programs which use Python), then "yes, this is possible": you may be able to update r3.7.0 to r3.7.4, for example (only the last digit changes). I see few compelling reasons to do-so, but YMMV (you have your own reasons).

If the question is a desire to run both Python 3.7 AND Python 3.8 on the same machine, then the PSL's (Python Standard Library) answer is "venv". Which you will find described in the docs (documentation) at "12. Virtual Environments and Packages".

For my own reasons, instead of Python virtual environments, I prefer to separate different clients/projects by keeping them in their own VirtualBox VM. Some dislike this particular solution as it lacks "open source" principles. There are other "container" technologies worth review. However, I suggest that this type of solution is the preserve of the more advanced programmer/computer user.
