Python virtualenv questions

Question

I\'m using VirtualEnv on Windows XP. I\'m wondering if I have my brain wrapped around it correctly:

I ran virtualenv ENV and it created C:\\WINDOW

Answer 1

on Windows I have python 3.7 installed and I still couldn't activate virtualenv from Gitbash with ./Scripts/activate although it worked from Powershell after running Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted in Powershell and changing the setting to "Yes To All".

I don't like Powershell and I like to use Gitbash, so to activate virtualenv in Gitbash first navigate to your project folder, use ls to list the contents of the folder and be sure you see "Scripts". Change directory to "Scripts" using cd Scripts, once you're in the "Scripts" path use . activate to activate virtualenv. Don't forget the space after the dot.
