Windows 10: Why I get a recommendation from Windows Store if I type python?

Hello!
I have a installation of Python 3.8 and Path has a link to its folder.

But if I open a command line Window and type python,
I get a recommendation from Windows Store to install Python 3.8 .

I cannot find any other files which could be started, using
dir /s python.*

Thank you for tips

Typing “python” on Windows 10 (version 1903) command prompt opens Microsoft store

This is strange issue I have observed. I installed Active Python 2.7 on Windows 10 (version 1903).

On typing “python” from search, opens the Python 2.7 prompt but when I type from command prompt window, it triggers the Microsoft Store.

Don't know how to fix it and this never happened on previous versions of Windows (RS5, RS4…)

Edit 2: Please suggest the solution to turn this off: either via command prompt or using answer file to get this after unattended installation.
