How to Run a File in Python – What's the Best Way to Execute a Script? or Struggling with How to Run

ugh, the classic how to run a file in python dilemma.

First, make sure your file is *actually* a `.py` file. Right-click > Properties to check.

Then, in cmd:
- `cd` to the folder.
- `python script.py`.

If it errors, Python might not be in PATH. Reinstall and tick that box!

For a smoother ride, use VS Code + Python extension. Open the file, hit Run, and boom.
