I'm using Debian. I installed Python 3.2.3. The path of Python 3 is /usr/bin/python3. How do I change it in Spyder?

Press CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+P to open the Preferences window. Within this window, select the Console item on the left, then the Advanced Settings tab. The path to the Python executable will be right there.

With Spyder v. 4.2.5 that comes with Anaconda3 v. 4.10.1, I do not see 'Console' on the left in the Preferences menu (i.e. Tools>Preferences). In this version you can change the path to the python.exe file under Python interpreter on the left.
