Same issue. A error occured when the setup wizard tried to create ryzen environment and the log file "C:\Temp\ryzenai_1.2.0_error_log.txt" showed the following content:

Make sure to use the MSI installer to uninstall the existing installation of RyzenAI-SW. Remove the existing conda environment manually using "conda remove --name ryzen-ai-1.2.0 --all --yes".

Let us know if this resolves the issue.

Thanks for your replay, unfortunately it does not work.

I think the problem maybe that the installer can't execute msbuild tool, because it is not in system PATH environment. I solve the issue by doing these.

1. After install Visual Studio 2022, add msbuild tool to SYSTEM PATH, for example: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.41.34120\bin\Hostx64\x64.
2. Also make sure that C:\Windows\System32 and C:\Windows\SysWOW64 is in SYSTEM PATH too.
3. Remove conda environment created by the installer previous, conda remove --name ryzen-ai-1.2.0 --all --yes.
4. Open a terminal with administration privilege, execute ryzen-ai-1.2.0-20240726.msi. DO NOT change the default installation path, I encountered the same env.yml not found problem when I tried to install it on other path.
5. In step 3, if you still got env.yml not found error, go to step 3 and install again, it is just another tricky point. After that, I ran the quicktest.py and test pass.

It works! Thanks a lot!
