I am trying to use a pip feature in python called pyperclip
, I am working through automate the boring stuff by Al Siegwart.
I am supposed to open a file editor and save the file as mclip.bat
in the C:\Windows folder:
First it has you build it in MU and save as mclip.py
then it has you create a batch file to run the program with the win-R run window
That file looks like this:
@py.exe C:\path_to_file\mclip.py %*
@pause
When I try to save this file to the C:\Windows
folder I get the error you dont have permission to save in this location. Contact the administrator to obtain permission
I am the sole user of the computer and the admin.
It also says, would you like to save this in Alex
instead? and when I say no it doesn't save
After this when I try to run the program on Win-r by typing mclip the following message appears:
C:\Users\Alex\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\python.exe: can't open file
C:\path_to_file\mclip.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
Press any key to continue . . .
