virtualenvwrapper could not find virtualenv in your path

Hi , I was trying to deploy for the first time . I was able to create a virtualenv for the first time but I installed python 3.5 so i went to the files tab and deleted all the directories. Now when i am running the command mkvirtualenv I am getting this error "ERROR: virtualenvwrapper could not find virtualenv in your path"

What do you get when you run

echo $PATH

in your console?

Did you delete some default directories on your account (e.g. ~/.local/bin)? To fix the issue, go to your Account page, open "System image" tab, change "python should run" to anything, than change to the version you should use -- that should recreate missing symlinks (that solution assumes that you haven't overwritten the PATH env variable).
