I've been coding in Python 3 for a while now, and was looking to add a new module. After running the pip command I realized that it was downloading the new modules in my Python 2.7 folder. How do I change my path to 3.7, so when downloading modules it will automatically download here?

  • Can you specify the OS you are working on ? Instructions would depend on that. – Devansh Sharma Jan 15 '22 at 18:27

  • @Jomme Indeed; that is why we want you to search before asking, because we have excellent answers for this precise topic already. Noise questions like this one with too few details and no response from the OP to requests for clarification dilute the search results and help no-one. – tripleee Jan 12 '23 at 06:19

Go to your environment variables, and edit them so that the path that contains the pip.exe corresponding to the Python 2.7 version is removed, and replace it with the path to the pip.exe corresponding to the Python 3 version, if that path is not already in the environment variables.
