How do I trouble shoot accessing python3 in gitbash?

When I type python3 into my gitbash window I get:

bash: /c/Users/salho/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps/python3: Permission denied

The fix I have from the instruction for a course I'm going to take over the summer say to go find the python.exe and python3.exe files and rename python.bak.exe and python3.bak.exe

But, when I try I get windows error code 0x80070780, which seems to indicate that windows cant find the file in that location.

Please help! Thank you!
