Pylint not found in CMD

Trying to use Pylint in CMD, verified that it's installed but CMD on Windows 10 says: "Pylint is not recognised as an internal or external command, nor is it an executable program or a command file".

Python beginner, using Anaconda3 distribution.

C:\Users\username\Documents>pylint filename.py

Solution

  • You should use Anaconda-Prompt instead of CMD if you have not added the anaconda python to your PATH environment.

    You can search for Anaconda-Prompt in windows search (Press Windows Key + Q).

    Then you should be able to use pylint, in the command line (within Anaconda-Prompt).
