msgid "Using Python on Windows"

msgstr ""

msgid "This document aims to give an overview of Windows-specific behaviour you should know about when using Python on Microsoft Windows."

msgstr ""

msgid "Unlike most Unix systems and services, Windows does not include a system supported installation of Python. Instead, Python can be obtained from a number of distributors, including directly from the CPython team. Each Python distribution will have its own benefits and drawbacks, however, consistency with other tools you are using is generally a worthwhile benefit. Before committing to the process described here, we recommend investigating your existing tools to see if they can provide Python directly."

msgstr ""

msgid "To obtain Python from the CPython team, use the Python Install Manager. This is a standalone tool that makes Python available as global commands on your Windows machine, integrates with the system, and supports updates over time. You can download the Python Install Manager from `python.org/downloads`_ or through the `Microsoft Store app`_."

msgstr ""

msgid "Once you have installed the Python Install Manager, the global ``python`` command can be used from any terminal to launch your current latest version of Python. This version may change over time as you add or remove different versions, and the ``py list`` command will show which is current."

msgstr ""

msgid "In general, we recommend that you create a :ref:`virtual environment <tut-venv>` for each project and run ``<env>\\Scripts\\Activate`` in your terminal to use it. This provides isolation between projects, consistency over time, and ensures that additional commands added by packages are also available in your session. Create a virtual environment using ``python -m venv <env path>``."

msgstr ""

msgid "If the ``python`` or ``py`` commands do not seem to be working, please see the :ref:`Troubleshooting <pymanager-troubleshoot>` section below. There are sometimes additional manual steps required to configure your PC."

msgstr ""

msgid "Apart from using the Python install manager, Python can also be obtained as NuGet packages. See :ref:`windows-nuget` below for more information on these packages."

msgstr ""

msgid "The embeddable distros are minimal packages of Python suitable for embedding into larger applications. They can be installed using the Python install manager. See :ref:`windows-embeddable` below for more information on these packages."

msgstr ""

msgid "Python install manager"

msgstr ""

msgid "Installation"

msgstr ""

msgid "The Python install manager can be installed from the `Microsoft Store app`_ or downloaded and installed from `python.org/downloads`_. The two versions are identical."

msgstr ""

msgid "To install through the Store, simply click \"Install\". After it has completed, open a terminal and type ``python`` to get started."

msgstr ""

msgid "To install the file downloaded from python.org, either double-click and select \"Install\", or run ``Add-AppxPackage <path to MSIX>`` in Windows Powershell."

msgstr ""

msgid "After installation, the ``python``, ``py``, and ``pymanager`` commands should be available. If you have existing installations of Python, or you have modified your :envvar:`PATH` variable, you may need to remove them or undo the modifications. See :ref:`pymanager-troubleshoot` for more help with fixing non-working commands."

msgstr ""

msgid "When you first install a runtime, you will likely be prompted to add a directory to your :envvar:`PATH`. This is optional, if you prefer to use the ``py`` command, but is offered for those who prefer the full range of aliases (such as ``python3.14.exe``) to be available. The directory will be :file:`%LocalAppData%\\\\Python\\\\bin` by default, but may be customized by an administrator. Click Start and search for \"Edit environment variables for your account\" for the system settings page to add the path."

msgstr ""

msgid "Each Python runtime you install will have its own directory for scripts. These also need to be added to :envvar:`PATH` if you want to use them."

msgstr ""

msgid "The Python install manager will be automatically updated to new releases. This does not affect any installs of Python runtimes. Uninstalling the Python install manager does not uninstall any Python runtimes."

msgstr ""

msgid "If you are not able to install an MSIX in your context, for example, you are using automated deployment software that does not support it, or are targeting Windows Server 2019, please see :ref:`pymanager-advancedinstall` below for more information."

msgstr ""

msgid "Basic use"

msgstr ""

msgid "The recommended command for launching Python is ``python``, which will either launch the version requested by the script being launched, an active virtual environment, or the default installed version, which will be the latest stable release unless configured otherwise. If no version is specifically requested and no runtimes are installed at all, the current latest release will be installed automatically."

msgstr ""

msgid "For all scenarios involving multiple runtime versions, the recommended command is ``py``. This may be used anywhere in place of ``python`` or the older ``py.exe`` launcher. By default, ``py`` matches the behaviour of ``python``, but also allows command line options to select a specific version as well as subcommands to manage installations. These are detailed below."

msgstr ""

msgid "Because the ``py`` command may already be taken by the previous version, there is also an unambiguous ``pymanager`` command. Scripted installs that are intending to use Python install manager should consider using ``pymanager``, due to the lower chance of encountering a conflict with existing installs. The only difference between the two commands is when running without any arguments: ``py`` will launch your default interpreter, while ``pymanager`` will display help (``pymanager exec ...`` provides equivalent behaviour to ``py ...``)."

msgstr ""

msgid "Each of these commands also has a windowed version that avoids creating a console window. These are ``pyw``, ``pythonw`` and ``pymanagerw``. A ``python3`` command is also included that mimics the ``python`` command. It is intended to catch accidental uses of the typical POSIX command on Windows, but is not meant to be widely used or recommended."

msgstr ""

msgid "To launch your default runtime, run ``python`` or ``py`` with the arguments you want to be passed to the runtime (such as script files or the module to launch):"

msgstr ""

msgid ""

"$> py\n"

"...\n"

"$> python my-script.py\n"

"...\n"

"$> py -m this\n"

"..."

msgstr ""

msgid "The default runtime can be overridden with the :envvar:`PYTHON_MANAGER_DEFAULT` environment variable, or a configuration file. See :ref:`pymanager-config` for information about configuration settings."

msgstr ""

msgid "To launch a specific runtime, the ``py`` command accepts a ``-V:<TAG>`` option. This option must be specified before any others. The tag is part or all of the identifier for the runtime; for those from the CPython team, it looks like the version, potentially with the platform. For compatibility, the ``V:`` may be omitted in cases where the tag refers to an official release and starts with ``3``."

msgstr ""

msgid ""

"$> py -V:3.14 ...\n"

"$> py -V:3-arm64 ..."

msgstr ""

msgid "Runtimes from other distributors may require the *company* to be included as well. This should be separated from the tag by a slash, and may be a prefix. Specifying the company is optional when it is ``PythonCore``, and specifying the tag is optional (but not the slash) when you want the latest release from a specific company."

msgstr ""

msgid ""

"$> py -V:Distributor\\1.0 ...\n"

"$> py -V:distrib/ ..."

msgstr ""

msgid "If no version is specified, but a script file is passed, the script will be inspected for a *shebang line*. This is a special format for the first line in a file that allows overriding the command. See :ref:`pymanager-shebang` for more information. When there is no shebang line, or it cannot be resolved, the script will be launched with the default runtime."

msgstr ""

msgid "If you are running in an active virtual environment, have not requested a particular version, and there is no shebang line, the default runtime will be that virtual environment. In this scenario, the ``python`` command was likely already overridden and none of these checks occurred. However, this behaviour ensures that the ``py`` command can be used interchangeably."

msgstr ""

msgid "When no runtimes are installed, any launch command will try to install the requested version and launch it. However, after any version is installed, only the ``py exec ...`` and ``pymanager exec ...`` commands will install if the requested version is absent. Other forms of commands will display an error and direct you to use ``py install`` first."

msgstr ""

msgid "Command help"

msgstr ""

msgid "The ``py help`` command will display the full list of supported commands, along with their options. Any command may be passed the ``-?`` option to display its help, or its name passed to ``py help``."

msgstr ""

msgid ""

"$> py help\n"

"$> py help install\n"

"$> py install /?"

msgstr ""

msgid "All commands support some common options, which will be shown by ``py help``. These options must be specified after any subcommand. Specifying ``-v`` or ``--verbose`` will increase the amount of output shown, and ``-vv`` will increase it further for debugging purposes. Passing ``-q`` or ``--quiet`` will reduce output, and ``-qq`` will reduce it further."

msgstr ""

msgid "The ``--config=<PATH>`` option allows specifying a configuration file to override multiple settings at once. See :ref:`pymanager-config` below for more information about these files."

msgstr ""

msgid "Listing runtimes"

msgstr ""

msgid "$> py list [-f=|--format=<FMT>] [-1|--one] [--online|-s=|--source=<URL>] [<TAG>...]"

msgstr ""

msgid "The list of installed runtimes can be seen using ``py list``. A filter may be added in the form of one or more tags (with or without company specifier), and each may include a ``<``, ``<=``, ``>=`` or ``>`` prefix to restrict to a range."

msgstr ""

msgid "A range of formats are supported, and can be passed as the ``--format=<FMT>`` or ``-f <FMT>`` option. Formats include ``table`` (a user friendly table view), ``csv`` (comma-separated table), ``json`` (a single JSON blob), ``jsonl`` (one JSON blob per result), ``exe`` (just the executable path), ``prefix`` (just the prefix path)."

msgstr ""

msgid "The ``--one`` or ``-1`` option only displays a single result. If the default runtime is included, it will be the one. Otherwise, the \"best\" result is shown (\"best\" is deliberately vaguely defined, but will usually be the most recent version). The result shown by ``py list --one <TAG>`` will match the runtime that would be launched by ``py -V:<TAG>``."

msgstr ""

msgid "The ``--only-managed`` option excludes results that were not installed by the Python install manager. This is useful when determining which runtimes may be updated or uninstalled through the ``py`` command."

msgstr ""

msgid "The ``--online`` option is short for passing ``--source=<URL>`` with the default source. Passing either of these options will search the online index for runtimes that can be installed. The result shown by ``py list --online --one <TAG>`` will match the runtime that would be installed by ``py install <TAG>``."

msgstr ""

msgid "$> py list --online 3.14"

msgstr ""

msgid "For compatibility with the old launcher, the ``--list``, ``--list-paths``, ``-0`` and ``-0p`` commands (e.g. ``py -0p``) are retained. They do not allow additional options, and will produce legacy formatted output."

msgstr ""

msgid "Installing runtimes"

msgstr ""

msgid "$> py install [-s=|--source=<URL>] [-f|--force] [-u|--update] [--dry-run] [<TAG>...]"

msgstr ""

msgid "New runtime versions may be added using ``py install``. One or more tags may be specified, and the special tag ``default`` may be used to select the default. Ranges are not supported for installation."

msgstr ""

msgid "The ``--source=<URL>`` option allows overriding the online index that is used to obtain runtimes. This may be used with an offline index, as shown in :ref:`pymanager-offline`."

msgstr ""

msgid "Passing ``--force`` will ignore any cached files and remove any existing install to replace it with the specified one."

msgstr ""

msgid "Passing ``--update`` will replace existing installs if the new version is newer. Otherwise, they will be left. If no tags are provided with ``--update``, all installs managed by the Python install manager will be updated if newer versions are available. Updates will remove any modifications made to the install, including globally installed packages, but virtual environments will continue to work."

msgstr ""

msgid "Passing ``--dry-run`` will generate output and logs, but will not modify any installs."

msgstr ""

msgid "Passing ``--refresh`` will update all registrations for installed runtimes. This will recreate Start menu shortcuts, registry keys, and global aliases (such as ``python3.14.exe`` or for any installed scripts). These are automatically refreshed on installation of any runtime, but may need to be manually refreshed after installing packages."

msgstr ""

msgid "In addition to the above options, the ``--target`` option will extract the runtime to the specified directory instead of doing a normal install. This is useful for embedding runtimes into larger applications. Unlike a normal install, ``py`` will not be aware of the extracted runtime, and no Start menu or other shortcuts will be created. To launch the runtime, directly execute the main executable (typically ``python.exe``) in the target directory."

msgstr ""

msgid "$> py install ... [-t=|--target=<PATH>] <TAG>"

msgstr ""

msgid "The ``py exec`` command will install the requested runtime if it is not already present. This is controlled by the ``automatic_install`` configuration (:envvar:`PYTHON_MANAGER_AUTOMATIC_INSTALL`), and is enabled by default. If no runtimes are available at all, all launch commands will do an automatic install if the configuration setting allows. This is to ensure a good experience for new users, but should not generally be relied on rather than using the ``py exec`` command or explicit install commands."

msgstr ""

msgid "Offline installs"

msgstr ""

msgid "To perform offline installs of Python, you will need to first create an offline index on a machine that has network access."

msgstr ""

msgid "$> py install --download=<PATH> ... <TAG>..."

msgstr ""

msgid "The ``--download=<PATH>`` option will download the packages for the listed tags and create a directory containing them and an ``index.json`` file suitable for later installation. This entire directory can be moved to the offline machine and used to install one or more of the bundled runtimes:"

msgstr ""

msgid "$> py install --source=\"<PATH>\\index.json\" <TAG>..."

msgstr ""

msgid "The Python install manager can be installed by downloading its installer and moving it to another machine before installing."

msgstr ""

msgid "Alternatively, the ZIP files in an offline index directory can simply be transferred to another machine and extracted. This will not register the install in any way, and so it must be launched by directly referencing the executables in the extracted directory, but it is sometimes a preferable approach in cases where installing the Python install manager is not possible or convenient."

msgstr ""

msgid "In this way, Python runtimes can be installed and managed on a machine without access to the internet."

msgstr ""

msgid "Uninstalling runtimes"

msgstr ""

msgid "$> py uninstall [-y|--yes] <TAG>..."

msgstr ""

msgid "Runtimes may be removed using the ``py uninstall`` command. One or more tags must be specified. Ranges are not supported here."

msgstr ""

msgid "The ``--yes`` option bypasses the confirmation prompt before uninstalling."

msgstr ""

msgid "Instead of passing tags individually, the ``--purge`` option may be specified. This will remove all runtimes managed by the Python install manager, including cleaning up the Start menu, registry, and any download caches. Runtimes that were not installed by the Python install manager will not be impacted, and neither will manually created configuration files."

msgstr ""

msgid "$> py uninstall [-y|--yes] --purge"

msgstr ""

msgid "The Python install manager can be uninstalled through the Windows \"Installed apps\" settings page. This does not remove any runtimes, and they will still be usable, though the global ``python`` and ``py`` commands will be removed. Reinstalling the Python install manager will allow you to manage these runtimes again. To completely clean up all Python runtimes, run with ``--purge`` before uninstalling the Python install manager."

msgstr ""

msgid "Configuration"

msgstr ""

msgid "Python install manager is configured with a hierarchy of configuration files, environment variables, command-line options, and registry settings. In general, configuration files have the ability to configure everything, including the location of other configuration files, while registry settings are administrator-only and will override configuration files. Command-line options override all other settings, but not every option is available."

msgstr ""

msgid "This section will describe the defaults, but be aware that modified or overridden installs may resolve settings differently."

msgstr ""

msgid "A global configuration file may be configured by an administrator, and would be read first. The user configuration file is stored at :file:`%AppData%\\\\Python\\\\pymanager.json` (note that this location is under ``Roaming``, not ``Local``) and is read next, overwriting any settings from earlier files. An additional configuration file may be specified as the ``PYTHON_MANAGER_CONFIG`` environment variable or the ``--config`` command line option (but not both). These locations may be modified by administrative customization options listed later."

msgstr ""

msgid "The following settings are those that are considered likely to be modified in normal use. Later sections list those that are intended for administrative customization."

msgid "``PYTHON_MANAGER_DEFAULT_PLATFORM``"

msgstr ""

msgid "The preferred default platform to launch or install. This is treated as a suffix to the specified tag, such that ``py -V:3.14`` would prefer an install for ``3.14-64`` if it exists (and ``default_platform`` is ``-64``), but will use ``3.14`` if no tagged install exists."

msgstr ""

msgid "Shebang lines"

msgstr ""

msgid "If the first line of a script file starts with ``#!``, it is known as a \"shebang\" line. Linux and other Unix like operating systems have native support for such lines and they are commonly used on such systems to indicate how a script should be executed. The ``python`` and ``py`` commands allow the same facilities to be used with Python scripts on Windows."

msgstr ""

msgid "To allow shebang lines in Python scripts to be portable between Unix and Windows, a number of 'virtual' commands are supported to specify which interpreter to use. The supported virtual commands are:"

msgstr ""

msgid "``/usr/bin/env <ALIAS>``"

msgstr ""

msgid "``<ALIAS>``"

msgstr ""

msgid "For example, if the first line of your script starts with"

msgstr ""

msgid "#! /usr/bin/python"

msgstr ""

msgid "The default Python or an active virtual environment will be located and used. As many Python scripts written to work on Unix will already have this line, you should find these scripts can be used by the launcher without modification. If you are writing a new script on Windows which you hope will be useful on Unix, you should use one of the shebang lines starting with ``/usr``."

msgstr ""

msgid "Any of the above virtual commands can have ``<ALIAS>`` replaced by an alias from an installed runtime. That is, any command generated in the global aliases directory (which you may have added to your :envvar:`PATH` environment variable) can be used in a shebang, even if it is not on your :envvar:`PATH`. This allows the use of shebangs like ``/usr/bin/python3.12`` to select a particular runtime."

msgstr ""

msgid "If no runtimes are installed, or if automatic installation is enabled, the requested runtime will be installed if necessary. See :ref:`pymanager-config` for information about configuration settings."

msgstr ""

msgid "The ``/usr/bin/env`` form of shebang line will also search the :envvar:`PATH` environment variable for unrecognized commands. This corresponds to the behaviour of the Unix ``env`` program, which performs the same search, but prefers launching known Python commands. A warning may be displayed when searching for arbitrary executables, and this search may be disabled by the ``shebang_can_run_anything`` configuration option."

msgstr ""

msgid "Shebang lines that do not match any of patterns are treated as *Windows* executable paths that are absolute or relative to the directory containing the script file. This is a convenience for Windows-only scripts, such as those generated by an installer, since the behavior is not compatible with Unix-style shells. These paths may be quoted, and may include multiple arguments, after which the path to the script and any additional arguments will be appended. This functionality may be disabled by the ``shebang_can_run_anything`` configuration option."

msgstr ""

msgid "Since version 26.3 of the Python install manager, custom shebang templates may be added to your configuration file. Add the ``shebang_templates`` object with one member for each template (the string to match) and the command to use when the template is matched. Most commands should be ``py -V:<tag>`` (or ``pyw``) to launch one of your installed runtimes. The ``py -3.<version>`` form is also allowed, as is a plain ``py`` to launch the default. No other arguments are supported."

msgstr ""

" \"/usr/bin/my_custom_python\": \"py -V:MyCustomPython/3\"\n"

" }\n"

"}"

msgstr ""

msgid "If the substitute command is not ``py`` or ``pyw``, it will be written back into the shebang and regular handling continues. If launching arbitrary executables is permitted, then providing a full path will allow you to redirect from Python to any executable. The template should match either the entire line (ignoring leading and trailing whitespace), or up to the first space in the shebang line."

msgstr ""

msgid "The behaviour of shebangs in the Python install manager is subtly different from the previous ``py.exe`` launcher, and the old configuration options no longer apply. If you are specifically reliant on the old behaviour or configuration, we recommend installing the `legacy launcher`_. The legacy launcher's ``py`` command will override PyManager's one by default, and you will need to use ``pymanager`` commands for installing and uninstalling."

msgstr ""

msgid "Advanced installation"

msgstr ""

msgid "For situations where an MSIX cannot be installed, such as some older administrative distribution platforms, there is an MSI available from the python.org downloads page. This MSI has no user interface, and can only perform per-machine installs to its default location in Program Files. It will attempt to modify the system :envvar:`PATH` environment variable to include this install location, but be sure to validate this on your configuration."

msgstr ""

msgid "Windows Server 2019 is the only version of Windows that CPython supports that does not support MSIX. For Windows Server 2019, you should use the MSI."

msgstr ""

msgid "Be aware that the MSI package does not bundle any runtimes, and so is not suitable for installs into offline environments without also creating an offline install index. See :ref:`pymanager-offline` and :ref:`pymanager-admin-config` for information on handling these scenarios."

msgstr ""

msgid "Runtimes installed by the MSI are shared with those installed by the MSIX, and are all per-user only. The Python install manager does not support installing runtimes per-machine. To emulate a per-machine install, you can use ``py install --target=<shared location>`` as administrator and add your own system-wide modifications to :envvar:`PATH`, the registry, or the Start menu."

msgstr ""

msgid "When the MSIX is installed, but commands are not available in the :envvar:`PATH` environment variable, they can be found under :file:`%LocalAppData%\\\\Microsoft\\\\WindowsApps\\\\PythonSoftwareFoundation.PythonManager_3847v3x7pw1km` or :file:`%LocalAppData%\\\\Microsoft\\\\WindowsApps\\\\PythonSoftwareFoundation.PythonManager_qbz5n2kfra8p0`, depending on whether it was installed from python.org or through the Windows Store. Attempting to run the executable directly from Program Files is not recommended."

msgstr ""

msgid "To download the Python install manager and install on another machine, the following WinGet command will download the required files from the Store to your Downloads directory (add ``-d <location>`` to customize the output location).

Using pip to manage dependencies as for a regular Python installation is not supported with this distribution, though with some care it may be possible to include and use pip for automatic updates. In general, third-party packages should be treated as part of the application (\"vendoring\") so that the developer can ensure compatibility with newer versions before providing updates to users."

msgstr ""

msgid "The two recommended use cases for this distribution are described below."

msgstr ""

msgid "Python application"

msgstr ""

msgid "An application written in Python does not necessarily require users to be aware of that fact. The embedded distribution may be used in this case to include a private version of Python in an install package. Depending on how transparent it should be (or conversely, how professional it should appear), there are two options."

msgstr ""

msgid "Using a specialized executable as a launcher requires some coding, but provides the most transparent experience for users. With a customized launcher, there are no obvious indications that the program is running on Python: icons can be customized, company and version information can be specified, and file associations behave properly. In most cases, a custom launcher should simply be able to call ``Py_Main`` with a hard-coded command line."

msgstr ""

msgid "The simpler approach is to provide a batch file or generated shortcut that directly calls the ``python.exe`` or ``pythonw.exe`` with the required command-line arguments. In this case, the application will appear to be Python and not its actual name, and users may have trouble distinguishing it from other running Python processes or file associations."

msgstr ""

msgid "With the latter approach, packages should be installed as directories alongside the Python executable to ensure they are available on the path. With the specialized launcher, packages can be located in other locations as there is an opportunity to specify the search path before launching the application."

msgstr ""

msgid "Embedding Python"

msgstr ""

msgid "Applications written in native code often require some form of scripting language, and the embedded Python distribution can be used for this purpose. In general, the majority of the application is in native code, and some part will either invoke ``python.exe`` or directly use ``python3.dll``. For either case, extracting the embedded distribution to a subdirectory of the application installation is sufficient to provide a loadable Python interpreter."

msgstr ""

msgid "As with the application use, packages can be installed to any location as there is an opportunity to specify search paths before initializing the interpreter. Otherwise, there is no fundamental differences between using the embedded distribution and a regular installation."
