UiPath.Python.Activities 1.9.0 now supports the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime

The new Python activities package version includes a small but important improvement around the required .NET Desktop Runtime dependency.

Previously, the Python scope activity would freeze if no .NET 6 Desktop Runtime was present in the environment.

Now it will accept any version higher or equal to 6 (for example: .NET 6, .NET 8, and so on), and the activity will throw a better exception if the required dependency is not found at all.

You can find the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime over here:

This is documented in our release notes over here, and you can already grab the new version from the UiPath Official feed.

If you struggle to configure the activity, please refer to this working example that uses Python 3.12 and the default Python installation path under:
%localappdata%\Programs\Python\Python312

Hello
I have encountered the same problem as you, and I am currently using Python 3.12.8. I have installed SDK 8.0 but still encounter errors.

hello @loginerror
Thank you for your reply. Now I have solved this problem. After upgrading the UipathStudio version to 24.10.8, Python can run normally.
