I have a .py file (make_standalone_toolchain.py) that I must run in cmd as

<NDK root dir>/build/tools/make_standalone_toolchain.py --arch arm --api 21 --stl=libc++ --install-dir /tmp/my-android-toolchain

I know the NDK dir and I am on Windows 10. Currently, my .py files open with PyCharm. this is an issue for when I run the command above, it just opens PyCharm instead of running the script and creating a toolchain.

What should my .py file open with so it will run when I use the cmd line above?

What happens if you `chmod +x` the file and run it as `./___.py`? – cs95 May 07 '18 at 18:54
do you have the python exectutable in your PATH, if yes you should be able to run it with `python ` – zython May 07 '18 at 18:55

wrong file association, use "repair" in python install – Jean-François Fabre May 07 '18 at 18:55
Where do I repair and what is file association – Ron Arel May 07 '18 at 18:57
it's covered in the duplicate link. Just run installation program again and select "repair" – Jean-François Fabre May 07 '18 at 19:00
how do I put the file executable in my path? @Jean-FrançoisFabre – Ron Arel May 07 '18 at 19:00
you don"t need to. Let me edit the duplicate link to show the "repair" screen – Jean-François Fabre May 07 '18 at 19:03
I tried to repair and it is still a none executable file – Ron Arel May 07 '18 at 19:07
