system cannot find the file specified while installing geth in python

If you encounter the "system cannot find the file specified" error while installing Geth in Python, it usually means that the Geth executable file is not present in the system's PATH.

To resolve this issue, you need to ensure that the Geth executable file is added to the system's PATH environment variable.

Here are the steps to add Geth to the PATH:

  1. Locate the folder where the Geth executable file is located. It is typically in the Geth installation directory.

  2. Copy the path of the Geth executable file.

  3. Open the Start menu and search for "Environment Variables" or go to Control Panel > System > Advanced system settings > Environment Variables.

  4. In the "System Variables" section, scroll down and find the "Path" variable. Select it and click on the "Edit" button.

  5. In the "Edit Environment Variable" window, click on the "New" button to add a new entry.

  6. Paste the path of the Geth executable file that you copied earlier and click "OK" to save the changes.

  7. Close all the opened windows and restart your computer.

After following these steps, the "system cannot find the file specified" error should no longer occur when using Geth in Python.
