Problem
Running this command in verbose (-vv
) mode:
$ beet -vv (beet config -e
error: Could not edit configuration: [Errno 2] No such file or directory)
Setup
- OS: Windows 11 pro
- Python version: 3.11
- beets version: 2.00
- Turning off plugins made problem go away (yes/no): no
My configuration (output of beet config
) is:
directory: F:\Tagged
library: ~/data/musiclibrary.db
import:
write: yes
move: yes
plugins: inline convert web
lyrics: yes
I think something has gone wrong with the description. Could you fix it to clarify the command that has been run?
Where is your config located?
What's the output of beet -vvv config
(without -e
)?
What's the output of

Where is it you've placed your configuration? It seems like beets is looking at C:\Users\amitb\AppData\Roaming\beets\config.yaml
.
What's the output of dir C:\Users\amitb\AppData\Roaming\beets
?
Where did you install Python from? I found some discussions mentioning that Python from the Windows Store is sandboxed and can't access certain paths: https://www.reddit.com/r/learnpython/comments/12b0ckc/pythonwindows_10_writing_files_to_appdata/
