Where is the Spyder file located (after pip install)

I did pip install spyder. If I type "spyder" in cmd, it opens so I know it exists. I found "scripts" and "site-packages" but spyder isn't in there. I did an internal search of the whole python 39 folder but it doesn't come up with anything. I want to make a shortcut, where is it located?

I think when you install Spyder with pip, it just adds it as another library/module for python. So there is no direct executable file. This is also not the recommended installation method by the Spyder team. But you can find a few ideas here how to create your shortcut. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44956371/how-to-start-spyder-ide-on-windows
