Hi @dev-deg

It seems like some versions of Mac OS, like Ventura, may not start with python installed. Based on some documentation though, it should be when you set up Xcode command line tools, which you should be able to do by running xcode-select --install from the command line.

After python is set up, you can run which python3 or which python, which should give you the path to it.

Hi @a-maurice thank you for your kind reply.

The issue was when I updated to Mac OS Ventura, XCode CLI tools where somehow uninstalled. Running xcode-select --install fixed the issue.

I had python 3 installed and it was done so using homebrew as you can see from the output below:

which python3 /opt/homebrew/bin/python3

which python python not found

Thank you very much for your help and support.

Kind regards, Dave
