trouble deploying helloworld project in google app engine

I am following a very simple tutorial for google app engine and at a point, after having installed Google sdk for python, it is asked to deploy the hello world app using the command from windows CMD:

>dev_appserver.py helloworld

My problem is: when I type this command, my Pycharm automatically pop up and open a tmp folder containing dev_appserver.py, as if I wanted to edit the file. I think that, when pycharm is installed, it forces a redirection of every command of the form >test.py to open the corresponding file in pycharm instead of executing the command.

What can I do to get rid of this?

Fixing the file association problem means removing the .py file association (likely created at pycharm's installation), which depends on your Windows version.

This official suggestion can be applied to several Windows versions.

For alternate solution search for "file association remove delete" and your Windows version, plenty of advice out there.

Note: after removing the association you'll need to manually select the application to use when you actually want to edit a .py file (which is not a big deal for one which typically opens the files from pycharm project windows).
