Thanks! One strange problem I’m getting - code that ran fine with the previous python alpha package 1.9.0-alpha.5252821 refuses to run with this updated package, always giving me: Python Scope: Error initializing Python engine All arguments are the same and downgrading back to the alpha version re…

Hey @Matias_Tika @g.ward Would you mind running this command in your CMD to double check and show us the output? dotnet --list-runtimes

Thanks for the quick response - this happens on several machines so I can get a few examples, but the one this particular machine is on: Edition Windows 10 Pro Version 22H2 Installed on ‎25/‎12/‎2022 OS build 19045.5608 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19061.1000.0 T…

Just to validate, would you mind trying out this version of the Python package to see if it fixes your issue? We’re trying to guess work here a bit, and such validation would speed up our development. You will be able to download it from here: https://uipath-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/p/maciej_kuzmicz…
