    If you are having issues starting PAGE in Windows, I believe we have a simple change that should take care of your issues.

    First, try the following command in a command prompt.

    py -V

    This will start Python using the Windows Python Launcher and request the version of the default Python instance.

    If it comes back with something like

    Python 3.12.1

    You are good to go.

    Now edit the page.bat file and change the command to

    @start /min py "%~dp0page.py" %1 %2 %3

    Save the file and (just to be safe) reboot your machine.

    A replacement page.bat file is attached if you need it.

    To be safe, you might also want to edit the winpage.bat file as well, making the same change.

    Both of these files are located in your PAGE distribution folder, usually located at c:\page\ .

    These two files will be updated in the next release of PAGE which should be 8.1.

    Hi Greg.

    Thank you very much for creating such useful GUI designer which is in my point of view 10 times better than QT Design studio.

    Anyway, I just want to mention that I did everything like you suggested but PAGE still not willing to start.

    It was working perfectly on Windows 10 but not in Windows 11.

    On Windows 11, PAGE doesn't start, any suggestion Please?

    Thank you!!
