Hi; *Question:*
Can we tell our Addon to only search in the Blender Python System folders to become independent from what other addons add to the Scripts folders? *Why we want that:* We get frequent (~twice per week) Addon installation error reports from our Windows users: %1 is not a valid Win32 application We debugged this and found the cause is a file _socket.pyd in the scripts directory: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\2.76\scripts\_socket.pyd Addons seem to lookup the scripts folder for pyd files and take what they can find there, even if the same file is delivered with Blender's own python. *Remark:* We can not find out how this _socket.pyd file gets into the scripts folder. We for sure do not distribute this. Also all users reported so far that they use the Addon Installer to install their addons and that's it. The "fix" is: delete the application data folder, restart blender and all is well. IMHO this is not a fix but an odd workaround. Thanks for taking care :) cheers, Gaia || || _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
