For what I know C:\>gdal_calc should work: apparently the c:\Python38\Scripts is added to your PATH variable, and you can call this ('bat'-file?) from everywhere on your system.
What can be an issue is that with the installation of python 3.8 you 'associated' the 'py' extension (so how to handle *.py files) with the Idle-python programming IDE. I think it is possible to just remove that association. And then a call to gdalcalc should work. IF NOT: have a look into the gdalcalc file (the bat script) and fix things there.
