Environmental variables for Python

Currently working on setting up environmental variables for Python.

I am on step 1:21 in the video.

Now at this point in the process I click on the Path variable but I do not get what he gets when I edit it. I get a list of variables within this list as seen here...



Can someone help me out here so I can execute my scripts from command line??

Thank you.

    Click on New and then put in the path to where your python folder is. Something like: C:\Program Files\Python\Python35-32\

    I did that yet

    "python" in cmd still yields

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


    as a result

    great now I can run my scripts using notepad+ and cmd instead of pycharm which is pedantic and annoying
