'flask' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

I have installed pip and flask in the directory. After writing flask code in a file, I have run the command flask run and get the following error:

'flask' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

Note: I am in the directory where pip and flask are installed, and the file is also located here which I want to run.

uninstall flask and re-install it using the same commands it worked for me. Note: I wasn't using any virtual environment.

This may be because you are using virtual environment.

So after activating virtual environment, install flask in the environment and try to run the code.
