CMD Prompt returning error #143

Closed dethcrow closed 5 years ago

dethcrow commented 5 years ago

When trying to run the backup, command prompt is only returning an error reading:

'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file.

Either Python is not installed, or it is not in your PATH. The Issues page is supposed to be for real issues with the software, not technical support. Please use Google next time.

I had Googled it before posting anything and found all the information to result the same way, so thanks for your great help. The ISSUE was fixed after ensuring that C:\Python27 was added to the $PATH, as well as the folder containing tumblr_backup.py so you may want to add that to the directions in the beginners file whereas it currently seems as if you need your user\Downloads path in the system variables.
