Python not recognised in windows prompt cmd

Question

Anconda prompt:

where conda
C:\Users\shail\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Library\bin\conda.bat
C:\Users\shail\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Scripts\conda.exe
C:\Users\shail\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\condabin\conda.bat

where python
C:\Users\shail\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\python.exe
C:\Users\shail\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\python.exe

So i went to environment variables and added path of anaconda and python. Path added:

C:\Users\shail\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3
C:\Users\shail\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps
C:\Users\shail\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Library\bin
C:\Users\shail\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Scripts
C:\Users\shail\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\condabin

But when I type on windows cmd:

C:\Users\shail>conda --version
conda 4.8.3

 C:\Users\shail>python --version

  C:\Users\shail>

So there is no response from windows cmd on version of python , so I guess it is not recognising python . I mainly need to use pip command, for that I need python first. I dont have python separately installed on system. It is inside my anaconda. On some sites it is written I should not download python separately and add its path because that will confuse the computer since there will be 2 pythons; one from Anaconda and one downloaded separately. So sticking to the anaconda version of python.

How to get my anaconda version of python recognised?

Answer 1

pip worked for me after restarting my computer. Though python is still not returning any output but pip is working fine.
