What does running it manually mean, specifically?

Nilamo,

Manually i meant navigating to python.exe on windows right click and select 'run as administrator'. This would launch python interpreter were in you type and run commands/code. But what i am facing is the interpreter starts when typing i do not see any character in that window.

If you hit the windows key and R, to open the Run dialog, and type "cmd", a command prompt should open. Can you type in that?

If you can, type "python" and hit enter to start the interactive prompt. Can you type in that?

Yes i tried even that but still i do not see any character's neither the ">>>" prompt in the interpreter

So what do you see when you open a command prompt?

Blank screen

Can you maybe share a screenshot? There should be something there, and I have no idea how to help if the console doesn't work.
