    ```
  - Windows* 10:
     ```sh
-   set PATH=<python_dir>/Library/bin;%PATH%
+   set PATH=<library_dir>;%PATH%

+     /usr/local/lib
+     ```
+   - virtual environments or custom Python installations (from sources or tarball):

+     echo $(which python3)/../../lib
+     ```
+ - Windows\*:
+   - standard Python:
+     ```sh
+      python -c "import os, sys; print((os.path.dirname(sys.executable))+'\Library\\bin')"
+     ```
+   - virtual environments or custom Python installations (from sources or tarball):
