I am trying to open my python files with a double click. I normally open them in anaconda prompt which uses the powershell file found in C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0. I tried using open with and navigating to this file, however then the promt window opens and immediately closes... the script should run continuously.
I also tried opening it with the "python (command line)" file which I found in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Python 2.7 I cannot open the location of that file for some reason using right click> open file location, however I tried to open my script using this but again the same thing happens.
It is frustrating as I need to close and open my scripts often. Each time I have to load up anaconda prompt, type in python and drag the file, and than press enter.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have installed Python 3.7 btw that I installed with ana and am trying to avoid reinstalling python as I have so many npm installs done that I did not keep a log of.
Try to open file/folder in other IDE like vscode, pyCharm or text editor.
Open IDE first after that click on file menu and select open option.Browse the file/folder and select it.
