[RESOLVED] Broken dev environment

Hello,

I'm contacting you again because I'm still stuck. This problem has been occurring for a while now:

When I run PyScripter, I get the following message:

"Unable to connect to the remote Python engine. The remote process console and debugger are not accessible."

Consequently, I experience extremely high latency when opening and creating packages.
I've just looked into it seriously, and I've found that I have two Python engines: one in c:\wapt\script\python.exe and the one installed by the python package in c:\python\python.exe.
In PyScripter, one is detected in "Registered Versions" and the other in "Unregistered Versions"...

I'm rereading the documentation to make sure I don't miss anything, and it seems that all that's needed is to install PyScripter and run it as a local administrator.
So I uninstalled everything (PyScripter and Python) and reinstalled only PyScripter, but the problem is still there...

I'm convinced it's some stupid mistake on my part, but I can't figure out what :(
it is. Could a kind soul shed some light on this?

Thanks

I had a similar issue (I just updated the pyscripter package).

Could you remove Python 2.7 (if it's installed on your machine)?

Delete the pyscripter folder in %appdata% and then upgrade the pyscripter package to its latest version.

If the %appdata%\pyscripter folder doesn't exist during installation, the package will pre-configure your pyscripter.

Hello,

PyScripter is now completely stuck with the "(Not Responding)" message in the window title. :mrgreen:

Edit: After the first failed attempt, subsequent attempts seem to work correctly. I'll test it a bit more before marking the post as resolved.

Okay, I just tested it with another PC and everything is working now!

Thanks
