FAQ

Q1: I run the script but nothing happens

A1:

Please make sure you have python command available in your terminal.

If you are using conda, since cmd will not activate the environment before running batch file, you may need to install another python in your system.

You can check your python by running in your cmd:

conda deactivate
python --version

Please make sure the version is greater than 3.6
