I installed (and reinstalled) Python 3.5 on Windows 10. I've gotten to the point that typing python into the command prompt has a result. However, the scripts I wrote in notepad but saved as a .py file aren't recognized in the command prompt or in Python Idle. I am new to the entire thing and am having a lot of trouble because it acts like the scripts aren't there. What could I be doing wrong?

You should obtain a proper IDE (lists and comparisons available online), with an editor and running and debug capabilities. Might take a bit of extra effort to install, but fiddling with the CLI for a windows user is really detrimental to the experience. I've learned that during my first encounter with the language, back when there (probably) weren't many good ones available.
