Same here.
Do some research, buy a guidebook if you're the kind who likes it on paper or like above if you are a fan of internet.
Just one comment, we've been to Prague with a car for about a week and it was more than enough time, included some side trips.

I love Prague but two weeks there is a lot unless you have specific activities in mind.
Also, are you aware that Prague, since it's on the central european plain, has a real winter - which can mean very cold and snowy at times.

I gather you must be there for some other reason and that's why you must be in Prague for two weeks? And why you have no idea why you are going there (I mean in terms of what to see?).
If you must be there 2 weeks, does that also mean you can't even do day trips somewhere? Two weeks in Prague in February could be a very long time, and I love Prague. The only time I've spent a long time there (and never 2 weeks) was when I had a purpose for going there which was to attend the famous international music festival in May. I can't imagine 2 weeks there if you aren't even allowed to go anywhere else in the area.
I'd attend a lot of calssical music concerts and opera, but that's my personal interest -- in addition to seeing all the museums and other sites, I wanted, of course. But I'd want to travel elsewhere, certainly within the CR. You can do lots of day trips to places that are within 2 hours by train.

Prague is amazing, but two weeks without actually knowing what to do there are a bit too much I guess. I definitely recommend doing some day trips within the CR or even to neighboring countries by train or you can check out Daytrip or CK shuttle, these companies will take you from one city to another (with optional stops in between) by car. It's like Uber but better.

Hi. I just got back from my second trip to Europe. I was in Prague from Jan 23 to the 29.
This free guide is excellent. You can download a PDFs. See the itineraries for things to do.

I also recommend that you download a city map and if your mobile device has a GPS chip it will help you navigate.
Two weeks is a long time but you might consider day or even overnight trips from your Prague base. There is a "tour" bus that goes to Vienna (14 hours round trip). There are shorter day trips within the Czech Republic as well.
There are several bus companies that are inexpensive and very comfortable means of transportation. I used Student Agency ( not just for students) for a two hour trip to Dresden from Prague and Flixbus fir another leg of my trip.
