pipenv shell Launching subshell in virtual environment… 'powershell.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or

Question

I am using Windows 10, and Visual Studio Code terminal (but I tried also Windows Powershell).

This is my location: PS C:\\Users\\MyUsername\\Desktop\\MyProjectFolder>

This was successful: pip install --user pipenv

This was successful: pipenv install django

At the end I get the message:

To activate this project's virtualenv, run pipenv shell.
Alternatively, run a command inside the virtualenv with pipenv run.

So I run: pipenv shell and get only this message:

Launching subshell in virtual environment…
'powershell.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

I have searched for duplicate questions but could not find anything helpful.

Answer 1

Change your PATH variable to cmd.exe (which is located in the system32 folder)

Then use command {pipenv location} shell

This should fix the problem.
