    from django.urls import path
ImportError: cannot import name path

Is it because i have two versions installed?

Not sure what django version you are currently using but if you are working with Django 2.0 then python2 wouldn't work ( Cause Django2.0 support only Python 3.4+)

So in your case if you are in Django2.0 (assuming you already have installed latest version of python in your machine) then you should run following command.

python3 manage.py runserver

Or install python3 instead of python2 in your virtual environment. Then hopefully your command 

python manage.py runserver

will work perfectly.
