如何从USB运行python？

Question

I am trying to download and run Python and PyCharm off of a usb stick because I am a newbie and suck with remembering all the OS specific setup, so the code I work on at work, does not work on my home computer.

When I try to run python.exe from the usb drive, I get the error "Windows cannot access the specified device path or file you may not have appropriate permissions". I am local admin and can open folders, just not run the exe.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

TL;DR I want a centralized place for all of my code to be neatly and easily stored, retrieved, edited, and tested.

Answer 1

use python virtualenv

pip install virtualenv
python -m virtualenv mypython

It will generate a 'new' python ( mypython ) that you may copy into your USB stick.

Read the documentation here .

Answer 2

Try Portable Python .

Python virtualenv use your installed python that's why you can't share it using usb stick or add it on your github repository.
