I need a video guide 😵

I have some trouble from the start: Dropping the file on the bat program and its teling me python not instaled...
BTW i got the latest release 3.12.1

Modifying "python" into "python3" or "py" should help... Worked for me as it may not recognize the command on your system

I'll try as soon as I get off work, thanks !
