Step 0 in learning python. Setting up python and django on windows

I am starting to learn python as a backend. And I wanted to use it with Django. But, I am told I need to set up virtual environment. Virtualenv, and I have installed it but I am having a hard time activating it can any one please help me?
And what are the details of working in a virtual environment. Is django supposed to be installed in that environment.

Thanks.

This is a pretty easy-to-follow guide and will answer your questions for sure.

I tried ```
pip3 and pip install virtualenvwrapper-win
But, it is informing me that it couldn’t find the correct version?!
Thanks.
