stderr-Error loading Python DLL #2241

Open newbie22222 opened 1 year ago

newbie22222 commented 1 year ago

Can't use Specter since latest release. I receive the message: Specter Desktop encounter an error: specterd exited with code 4294967295. Check the logs in the menu!

Logs indicate: "stderr-Error loading Python DLL stderr-sers\J*****\AppData\Local\Temp_MEI105082\python310.dll'. LoadLibrary: The specified module could not be found.

Running Windows 7 64 bit and connecting to Bitcoin Core on another computer.

TIA

Can you locate the python310.dll file manually in the temporary folder (C:\Users\J*****\AppData\Local\Temp_MEI105082) and check if it exists?

The temporary folder you mentioned (AppData\Local\Temp_MEI...) is created by PyInstaller at runtime when the bundled application is executed. This folder contains all the necessary files and modules required to run the application, including the Python interpreter, libraries, and resources such as images, templates, and data files.

Perhaps you / some programme deleted this folder? It should be recreated when you start the Specter app again.
