Chocolatey - Python - Am I doing it wrong?

In Windows you can't normally just install something and immediately use it on the command line without closing and reopening your command shell.

Chocolatey however comes with a command you can run called "refresh environment", or refreshenv for short. Typically if the PATH gets updated, Chocolatey reminds you to run refreshenv to update your shell.

This allows you to immediately take advantage of newly installed apps.

Here's an annotated example of this:

Shows Upgrades / PATH changes / refreshenv


It's installed here as you can see from the installation log:

'C:\Python36'
