Execute Python in Sublime Text 3

Question

How can I execute Python 2.7 code using Sublime Text 3 on Windows 10? When I use the shortcut Ctrl+B it says 'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I can't edit python.sublime-build because as far as I know it does not exist in Sublime Text 3.

EDIT: I see this question is a duplicate. I did not see the post when I searched up the topic for some reason.

Is Python installed on your computer? If not, install it. If so, find it, copy the path to the folder containing `python.exe`, and add that path to your system's `PATH` variable. — MattDMo, Jul 23 '16 at 22:39
I have no idea how to do that. And yes I have python on my computer — Jordan M. Baron, Jul 23 '16 at 22:40

You need to add python to your system path or if you already have there is a chance that that in C:\Windows there is exe with python icon called "py" rename it to "python" and it should work fine.

I see nothing with py.exe in the Windows folder – Jordan M. Baron Jul 23 '16 at 20:20
If it's not there, look in `C:` for a `PythonXX` folder – Aaron Christiansen Jul 23 '16 at 20:21
