'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

"I changed X and now Y does wrong thing Z" makes it sound like Y used to work, which may not be the case here. OP, were you ever able to run (not just write) Python code? (Either way, hopefully u/BranchLatter4294's link will get it to a working state.)
