hey

[Column01]

@davidavidavi123 I've not had this issue before. I suspect it has to do with either where you extracted it (in your downloads folder) or the fact you seem to be using python that was installed from the windows store. Please try putting it in your documents folder (so like Documents/Discord-Moderation-Bot and then the bot.py script should be in that folder, no sub folder) and try again. If that doesn't work, please try installing python manually, not from the windows store

[davidavidavi123]

oh i think i accidently overwrote the manually installed python with the windows python

[davidavidavi123]

yo how do you uninstall the windows store python? 🤣

[Column01]

I think you need to do it from the settings app. Add or remove programs

[davidavidavi123]

yo i installed python 3.10.1 and now it says python not found xd

[Column01]

you will need to add it to your path variables to use it in the command prompt. It was an option when you installed it... might need to google it now

[davidavidavi123]

oh im trying to run it in visual studios terminal

[davidavidavi123]

should i uninstall and install again

[Column01]

No just look up how to add it to your PATH

[davidavidavi123]

i already uninstalled and installed with the path option

[davidavidavi123]

it still says python not found do i restart my pc

[Column01]

Restart Visual studio

[davidavidavi123]

i alreaady did multiple times

[Column01]

ok try rebooting your computer then

[davidavidavi123]

k it works now but i got another error

[Column01]

OK that's a genuine error, let me fix it real quick

[Column01]

Redownload the repository (or better yet setup git so you could just pull the changes easily) and it should work
