great idea

[sour raft]

@sharp steppe i did that in the environment variables window

added a new variable called "Path" and then add those directories u sent

[sharp steppe]

ok, then reboot your computer and cross your fingers that it comes back up

[sour raft]

😬

ok im going to reboot now

[sharp steppe]

if it doesnt then you will need to do a Windows Recovery

[sour raft]

its restarting..

its turning back on

ok nothing happened i think

[sharp steppe]

as in nothing at all or nothing bad?

[sour raft]

nothing bad thankfully

[sharp steppe]

ok, you will find that some programs wont work correctly as we cannot know what other stuff was in the path before, so bear that in mind for the coming days/weeks

[sour raft]

phew

okay ill keep that in mind

thanks steve seriously :()

[sharp steppe]

you dodged a big, big bullet there my friend

[sour raft]

thanks to you man 👍

[sharp steppe]

so now the python question

create a NEW environment variable python3 and add your 2 python paths to that

[sour raft]

new env variable called python3?

[sharp steppe]

yes and make sure the paths both end with ;

[sour raft]

sure

like this right

[sharp steppe]

I see no ;

[sour raft]

turns out i cant have ; in the second directory

is that okay

[sharp steppe]

ok.
now at the end of the path variable add a new line %python3%

[sour raft]

done

[sharp steppe]

ok, save and reboot

[sour raft]

brb

[sharp steppe]

no guarantees but you should be good to go now

you can test it when the system comes back up, open a powershell window and type in python. The python interpreter should start

[sour raft]

ok im gonna launch unity now

i hope the error messages arent gonna appear no more

phew

ok i dont see any error messages

thanks again steve

seriously

[sharp steppe]

ok, then just one last thing, where do I send my invoice? lol

DO NOT DO THIS AGAIN, EVER!

[sour raft]

lol notes taken

i wont be messing carelessly with env variables

i promise
