Hello,
I was recently running a Windows 10 machine Python 3.9. I simply created a batch file titled "Start-AIG.bat" which
simply contained the following: "pythonw AIG.py". It started a python program titled "AIG.py" and the Python
dialog box was displayed on my screen, running all day and night. I set up Windows to run this batch file upon startup and it
worked fine. I remember having to do a bunch of research before I learned that I needed to put "pythonw AIG.py" in the
batch file as opposed to "python AIG.py".
However, my old windows 10 desktop crashed and I have a new Windows 11 machine.
I installed the latest stable version of Python, which is 3.10. Now, when I
try to execute the same batch file, it doesn't launch the app. It could be
because I'm using Windows 11 or could be because I now have a newer version of
Python.
Does anyone have any ideas what I should do to get the Python script running on
my new machine?
The problem is probably that the Python folder isn't in Windows' search
path, but the recommended thing to do nowadays on Windows is to use the
Python Launcher "py.exe" (or "pyw.exe" for no console window) instead:
pyw AIG.py
