Windows Issues

  • Some users have reported issues using Git Bash on Windows; try using Command Prompt (CMD) or PowerShell instead.

  • Virtual environments can sometimes behave unexpectedly on Windows. If you have Python 3.10 or above installed (recommended), this will create a virtual environment named myenv in the current folder:

> python -m venv myenv

  • If Python isn’t available globally, use the full path:

> C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\python.exe -m venv myenv

  • After creating the environment, activate it using:

> .\myenv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

Or, for Command Prompt:

> .\myenv\Scripts\activate.bat

  • Sometimes, you may need to re-activate the virtual environment after changing directories. Keep the path handy in case it becomes deactivated unexpectedly.
