Description

The Python install manager helps you to install, manage, and launch Python on Windows. After install, the "py" command is your tool of choice - try "py help" to see what it can do! (Not working? You may need to uninstall the old "Python launcher", and check "Manage app execution aliases" to ensure the command is enabled.)

Python Install Manager is available through winget as package ID Python.PythonInstallManager, with version 26.2.240.0. Use the install command above to set it up on Windows without downloading a separate installer manually.
