Additional instructions for Windows users installing napari as a bundled app #120

Closed schoinh closed 3 years ago

Use Case

I think something about the napari bundled app installation on Windows that doesn't make some of its dependencies (like PyQt5) available to the plugins? And it likely causes errors like #119 that prevent the plugin from opening.

Solution

If a user is on Windows and they can't run the plugin, they should try starting napari as an admin and re-attempt to open the plugin. We should document this in our setup instructions.

We should also try to nail this error down more definitively and file an issue with napari.

Closing, the real solution seems to be this one #122
