Issue
Windows PATH environment variable is not set correctly
Description
I have created a virtualenv using this command on Windows:
virtualenv venv
and I activated it:
venv\Scripts\activate.bat
The full path of the virtualenv is this:
C:\Users\omerg\Desktop\Ömer\venv
But when I try to use pip, the system uses global pip installed on
C:\Python310\lib\site-packages\pip
instead ofC:\Users\omerg\Desktop\Ömer\venv\Scripts\pip
I am investigating, what I found is that the PATH environment variable is not set correctly.
My
venv\Scripts\activate.bat
is something like this:But when I try to echo the VIRTUAL_ENV or PATH environment variable
I am seeing this
But when I try to set VIRTUAL_ENV env var manually, there is no problem
Environment
Output of the virtual environment creation
Make sure to run the creation with
-vvv --with-traceback
