[SOLVED] Unable to set default Python to 3.x on MacOS Monterey

Issue

I have followed instructions as given on How to use pyenv to run multiple versions of Python on a Mac, and have followed each step.

1. $ brew install pyenv
2. pyenv install 3.9.9
3. Export path to zshrc via echo 'PATH=$(pyenv root)/shims:$PATH' >> ~/.zshrc
4. pyenv global 3.9.9

After this, when I run python -V, I expect to see Python 3.9.9 as the output. Instead, I see Python 2.7.18.

Am I missing something here?

Solution

After #4 in your list, did you source ~/.zshrc
