pyenv-win ignores local version

I am having some trouble to use the actual Python version specified by pyenv local.

Z:\>pyenv global
3.10.6

Z:\>pyenv local
3.9.12

Z:\>pyenv which python
C:\xxx\yyy\.pyenv\pyenv-win\versions\3.9.12\python.exe

Z:\>python
Python 3.10.6 (tags/v3.10.6:9c7b4bd, Aug  1 2022, 21:53:49) [MSC v.1932 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

Solution

Check if you have another system version of Python installed. If so, check your PATH order in 'Environment Variables'. Make sure that the path to pyenv-win\shims is higher than another installed version.
