I am unable to install PlatformIO as it can't find python

PlatformIO IDE

I see this: , so I click “I have Py…”

Then a popup is ignorant enough to aks for .exe :slight_smile:

But it accepts “/usr/bin/python3” - which removes the red banner below the input box, but then it fails again once I press enter.

andre@andre-wks:~$ which python3
/usr/bin/python3
andre@andre-wks:~$ python3 -V
Python 3.11.6

Please help.
