Unable to build a python app with AWS SAM

I am trying to build and run the sample python application from AWS SAM. I just installed python, below is what command lines gives..

D:\Udemy Work>python
Python 3.9.6 (tags/v3.9.6:db3ff76, Jun 28 2021, 15:26:21) [MSC v.1929 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>

D:\Udemy Work>pip -V
pip 21.1.3 from c:\users\user\appdata\local\programs\python\python39\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.9)

When I run sam build, I get the following error

Build Failed
Error: PythonPipBuilder:Validation - Binary validation failed for python, searched for python in following locations  : ['C:\\Users\\User\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python39\\python.EXE', 'C:\\Users\\User\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\python.EXE'] which did not satisfy constraints for runtime: python3.8. Do you have python for runtime: python3.8 on your PATH?

Below is my code

template.yaml

If I change the run time in yaml, then I get the following error

PS D:\Udemy Work\awslambda\python-test> sam build
Building codeuri: D:\Udemy Work\awslambda\python-test\hello_world runtime: python3.9 metadata: {} functions: ['HelloWorldFunction']

Build Failed
Error: 'python3.9' runtime is not supported

What is the solution here?
