Setup crashing because of allegedly not installed python while python is actually installed #644

Open Dat-Pudding opened 1 year ago

Dat-Pudding commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug

Upon cloning the repo on two different Windows machines (both with the current python version installed via the website) and hitting the setup.bat: Windows pops a cmd echo that it doesn't know the "python" command with the advice to install it from said MS store by not giving any arguments when running the command. It will only accept the command after installing Python from the MS Store for some reason.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Clone Repo
  2. Have Python already installed
  3. Start Setup.bat
  4. See error above

Expected behavior

Acknowledging the "unofficial" install from the official website and running the setup steps without any issues.

Operating system:

Additional context

Encountered the issue before manually applying the .gitmodules fix

Unsure if it's just some "use our software channel" kind of thing from MS or if Cherno could fix that
