Hello Guys,
I just updated my computer from window 10 to 11 and I have a small project with Python.
Today I clone that project from GitHub to my computer. And I want to check the current Python version installed on my computer and I try :
python -v command in cmd and I got the result:
import _frozen_importlib # frozen
import _imp # builtin
import '_thread' # <class '_frozen_importlib.BuiltinImporter'>
import '_warnings' # <class '_frozen_importlib.BuiltinImporter'>
import '_weakref' # <class '_frozen_importlib.BuiltinImporter'>
import '_io' # <class '_frozen_importlib.BuiltinImporter'>
import 'marshal' # <class '_frozen_importlib.BuiltinImporter'>
import 'nt' # <class '_frozen_importlib.BuiltinImporter'>
import 'winreg' # <class '_frozen_importlib.BuiltinImporter'>
import '_frozen_importlib_external' # <class '_frozen_importlib.FrozenImporter'>
# installing zipimport hook
import 'time' # <class '_frozen_importlib.BuiltinImporter'>
import 'zipimport' # <class '_frozen_importlib.FrozenImporter'>
# installed zipimport hook
# C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.9_3.9.2800.0_x64__qbz5n2kfra8p0\lib\encodings\__pycache__\__init__.cpython-39.pyc matches C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.9_3.9.2800.0_x64__qbz5n2kfra8p0\lib\encodings\__init__.py
I don't know what is this.
I tried with python version command and I got another error:
python: can't open file 'C:\Users\conta\version': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
I am checking in window 11, How can I find the current Python version in Window?
Thank you for any help!!

To check version of Python in Window or Linux you can use
python --versionpython -Vorpython -VVcommands, see below:C:\Users\conta>python --version Python 3.9.10 C:\Users\conta>python -V Python 3.9.10 C:\Users\conta>python -VV Python 3.9.10 (tags/v3.9.10:f2f3f53, Jan 17 2022, 15:14:21) [MSC v.1929 64 bit (AMD64)] C:\Users\conta>I hope this is the answer for your question.

1. With comand you can use some ways below:
$ python --version Python 3.9.10 $ python -V Python 3.9.10 $ python3 --version Python 3.9.10 $ python3 -V Python 3.9.102. In your code, you can use
sysorplatformmodules to get current version of Python.import sys print(sys.version)#Output:
3.8.2 (default, Mar 13 2020, 10:14:16) [GCC 9.3.0]Or
import platform print(platform.python_version()) #Output: 3.8.2I hope this answer will helpful for you.
