The specified Python path is not valid in uipath

my help desk team is asking which to be installed. is there a particular one needed?

I don’t think this is needed. But the . NET 6.0 Desktop Runtime will be needed. I have already shared the link above.

@chris.dease,

You just need the .NET Desktop Runtime 6.0.36

thanks, i provided the link in my ticket to my team and they came back with that question. i just responded to them with the link again. hopefully they will be able to install.

i have it downloaded. now i get the error:


any suggestions ?

@AJ_Ask and @ashokkarale,
it’s pretty obvious i’m not putting the right information in for library path and path. any help would be grateful. for every error i get, i get directed to another forum post and i see everyone putting different inputs into these fields and i can’t determine what is correct. i saw one post where someone ended up just creating a ticket to get support. do you feel that’s the best course of action?

It seems like you have currently two Python installations and I wonder if they are maybe conflicting with each other.

The confirmed working scenario is to:

  • have the .Net 6 Desktop Runtime (you resolved it)
  • work with the installation of Python in the local apps (so not the one from the windows store)

The entire experience looks very frustrating and I would like to understand the issue to make sure we can improve it.

@loginerror @ashokkarale @AJ_Ask ,
i was able to figure it out after this last comment (and forgive me if you stated this in one of the previous responses), but after the .NET installation, i was able to view another forum post that said to right click on “Python.exe” and get the correct folder path. That path was “C:\Program Files\Python311”. I was keeping the library path as the appdata windows store path. I then took the python.exe path and added \python311.dll to give me the library path of “C:\Program Files\Python311\python311.dll”. This was the correct combination for me to be able to run successfully. Long explanation here to add as a solution in case anyone has as much trouble as I did.

Thanks you all for your patience with me.
