Python 3.10 is not supported in Windows 7, it require a missing system library api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll

We supply this missing feature compiling this alternative: https://github.com/nalexandru/api-ms-win-core-path-HACK

But Windows 7 has other special issues, it seems that don’t use the PATH environment variable to find dlls, then in order to be able to load the Python dependencies of tohil.dll is necessary to copy to the <GiD> main folder these files (can be located at <GiD>\scripts\tohil\python\bin\x64)

  • python3.dll

  • python310.dll

  • api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll

The same happen to load gid.exe, it is necessary to copy to <GiD> the dlls:

  • tcl86t.dll

  • tk86t.dll

  • objarray.dll
