Connecting with Python 3.8.3

[Anonymous]

I am having a hard time connecting with Python 3.8.3.  It gives me an error, and I think it is because in my detected python home directories I cannot acess the APPDATA folder that houses python, hence issue with my path.  

how do I access the folder even I am showing all hidden files?

it is visible when I go through my windows explorer, but not when I am going through my power bi desktop

Where is your Python directory? Mine is in:

C:\Users\gdeckler\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32

Of course, looks like I am probably running 3.8? Python is my new favorite language BTW, 🙂

Thanks Greg,

this is where my python is directory

C:\\Users\\salman_ali\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python38-32

I don't know how to access it through power_bi, as I cannot see this folder when I try to browse

Wait, why do you have double backslashes? 

Just open File Manager and paste this into the bar, just single backslashes
C:\Users\gdeckler\AppData\Local\Programs

I got it working, the issue was that i am using a remote desktop and had to ensure matplotlib and numpy were installed using a command window in the remore desktop.  it works now
