For some reason it is using the python package urllib 2.0.7 instead of 1.26. Can you check the equivalent diriectory on your PC as this screenshot and see what urllib version is there

[skakspilleren]

The folder (and urllib) seems to be 100% identical to yours?!

[deefrawley]

Odd. Do you have another installation of Python on your PC?

[skakspilleren]

Yes I installed Python 3.11 from python.org. Mind you I've been using Macs for the last 20 years, so I'm slightly at a loss when it comes to where stuff is on a pc :-) I suppose urllib v2 is called instead of v1.26.15 because it's in my (python ?) path ?

Best thing to do is, even with another Python install, let Flow download the embedded Python and use that for Plugins. Python path should look like this.

Clear this setting, Quit and restart Flow and it should ask you if you want it to download Python. Click yes.

Problem solved, thanks! Now FlowLauncher uses it's own python install, located here: C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\FlowLauncher\Environments\Python
