Cannot start HassWP: ZipImportError: can't find module 'encodings'`
I went to the procedure, downloaded zip file, unpacked and run it. This is what I got:
`
D:\HASS\HassWP_2022.8.6>hass.cmd

PYTHONHOME = 'C:\PMService_python'

I run this on Windows 10.
My guess is that, as I have other application on the same PC that uses it's own instance of Python, which is set in environment (PYTHONHOME and PYTHONPATH), there is conflict and HassWP, tries to load libraries form the wrong place.
When I remove PYTHONHOME and PYTHONPATH, HassWP runs properly. But I cannot leave them removed as other application requires them.
I guess it is possible to configure HassWP to be independent of other Python installations that exist on the same PC. I am not familiar with Python platform so I cannot find how to resolve this.
