Python310 and Python37 in my path - should I get rid of 37?
#1
I have C:\Users\myusername\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\
and C:\Users\myusername\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\

In my path environment
I noticed when I was following instructions on a video

Should I get rid of the second one? I'm guessing I don't need Python37?
Should I just delete or should I uninstall?

Just wondering why it didn't get removed when the newer Python version got installed?

Thanks.

Can remove Python 3.7 from Path,if leave or delete old Pythons version it's up to you.
G:\div_code
λ py --list
Installed Pythons found by py Launcher for Windows
 -3.10-64 *
 -3.9-64
 -3.7-32
 -3.6-32
 -3.4-32
 -2.7-32
As see have some versions from Python.org as py show,i have lot more Anaconda/Miniconda,PyPy...ect.
Not all now about py use py --help to see what it can do.
Py can run all version have installed from Python.org,what's set in OS Path make no difference.
G:\div_code
λ py -3.7 -V
Python 3.7.3

# Just py will always use lasted version
G:\div_code
λ py -V
Python 3.10.5
