Hello,
when I run a script with a "normally" installed python, the directory
the script resides in is automatically added as first element to
sys.path, so that "import my_local_module" finds my_local_module.py in
the directory of the script.
However, when I run the same script with embeddable python ("Windows
embeddable package (64-bit)", download link
https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.11.3/python-3.11.3-embed-amd64.zip)
the script directory is *not* prepended to the path, thus "import
my_local_module" gives an ImportError.
This is intended behavior - the question comes up from time to time. The
embeddable distribution is intended to be part of an application, not a
general-purpose Python you can call for just anything.
There are a bunch of details here, for example:
