Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Start by locating the installation documentation for Windows, then cover adding Poetry to PATH and uninstalling it; done means both procedures are specific enough for a Windows 10 beginner to follow.

Description

Hey

I just started trying to use Poetry, but I cannot get it added to PATH. I am quite new at this, so apologies if it is easy to do and please be as specific, if you can when helping me.
Also, how do I uninstall Poetry if I do no longer want it?
I am using Windows 10.
