Help using chmod in windows

I'm currently using pycharm. Anyone who's got it running using cmod in windows? I get this error when I try it on my terminal "'chmod' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."

Need help resolving this one. thanks :D

chmod is a unix operating system command. Windows is a different species entirely.

Here's a link with some info on a windows version of something similar. https://superuser.com/questions/106181/equivalent-of-chmod-to-change-file-permissions-in-windows
