I needed to install Python 3.6.1 x64 for a project on windows. I uninstalled 3.6.1 x86 and installed 3.6.1 x64. I made sure that my PATH env var is pointing to the new install. I then associated py files with the correct python.exe: C:\Program Files\Python36\python.exe instead of: C:\Program Files (x86)\Python36-32\python.exe
I can run a script directly from a cmd window by calling python no problem: python myscript.py
but if I double click it displays a cmd windows bot nothing in it.
If I "Open with" it won't load, just giving me the waiting cursor for a couple of seconds. Even after I browsed for the new python.exe
What am I missing here?
Everything was working fine for Python x86
Thanks!
