Legacy Python Release: Legacy Python Release
A Python interpreter is the python.exe that runs your scripts.
- Different Python versions may exist on one machine.
- Projects may need different interpreters.
Select the interpreter pyIDE should use for internal and external runs.
- Verify the path points to python.exe.
- Use the interpreter that has your packages installed.
Add a Python executable or remove old entries that no longer exist.
- Portable Python installations may be added where supported.
- Removing an entry should not uninstall Python itself.
Rediscovery can locate Python installations after system changes.
- If rediscovery misses one, add the executable manually.
Interpreter errors usually mean the executable path is wrong or required modules are missing.
- Check the selected python.exe.
- Install packages in the same environment pyIDE uses.
The C++ recode may improve interpreter discovery and project-specific configuration.
- Final behavior may change before release.
