I've installed Python 3.6.0 as mentioned in the post

#

Am I missing something else?

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 2:31 PM

#

3.6 is outdated. You should try to install the latest version of python.

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 2:31 PM

#

I've reinstalled Python 3.13.2 - Feb. 4, 2025

#

this clearly says to shutdown LOL

this package depends on numpy<2.0 which doesn't support python 3.13. Downgrade to 3.12

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 2:48 PM

#

okay

#

I believed it installed but when I run the .bat file, nothing opens

runic kindle

this to show that all installed

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 2:57 PM

#

What bat file?

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 2:58 PM

#

runic kindle https://github.com/marcomusy/pianoplayer?tab=readme-ov-file

its the one in this zip

#

which they mention to run after installing

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 2:58 PM

#

pianoplayer.bat?

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 2:59 PM

#

yup

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 2:59 PM

#

That depends on anaconda

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 2:59 PM

#

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 2:59 PM

#

you need to edit line 10 to the path to your python

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:03 PM

to this?

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 3:03 PM

Except you're not using python 3.6, are you?

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:04 PM

#

so 31

"SET anaconda_path="C:\Python3.12"

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 3:05 PM

3.12

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:05 PM

#

runic kindle "SET anaconda_path="C:\Python3.12"

like this?

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 3:05 PM

#

you've got an extra decimal point in there

#

double check that path

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:06 PM

so this is currently the updated bat file

when i run it it just closes

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 3:06 PM

#

on the last line, remove REM

#

it should stay open so you can inspect any error message

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:07 PM

your path is wrong

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:10 PM

#

C:\Users\naqif>where python
C:\Users\naqif\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\python.exe
C:\Users\naqif\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\python.exe

#

shd i use "C:\Users\naqif\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312"

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 3:10 PM

#

yes

#

I'd also recommend removing python as an execution aliases from the windows settings app

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:12 PM

#

#

the file opens now however the prompt given in the cmd is

#

Starting pianoplayer...
'""C:\Users\naqif\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312"\Scripts\activate"' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 3:17 PM

#

probably quoting issues

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:18 PM

#

so can js ignore right if it opens up alrd

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 3:18 PM

#

actually, Scripts\activate only exists in virtualenvs, so yes you can ignore it.

#

Though I'd replace the python call with py -3.12 to future proof it

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:19 PM

#

okay thanks

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:19 PM

#

eternal depot Though I'd replace the python call with `py -3.12` to future proof it

this is in the path is it?

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 3:19 PM

#

it's in C:\Windows

#

assuming you didn't uncheck "install py launcher" during installation

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:20 PM

#

eternal depot Though I'd replace the python call with `py -3.12` to future proof it

wait sorry, i'm abit confused, how do i do that

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 3:20 PM

#

on the line that starts with python, replace python with py -3.12

runic kindle Mar 25, 2025, 3:20 PM

#

okay

eternal depot Mar 25, 2025, 3:21 PM

#

or the full path to the python exe
