Could you leave a setup for windows, because I'm having trouble setting it up.

I'm using only Linux right now. I will look forward for a windows installation in the coming weeks and let you know.

For the last step with the ENV variables you need to open C:\Users....yourWindowsUserNameAndAnacondaEnvironmentName...\envs\cadquery\etc\conda\activate.d and edit the bat file that is there. You need to set the HOME variable to some value, like by adding this lines:

@set "HOME=c:\freecadhome" @set "FREECAD_USER_HOME=c:\freecadhome\user"

this is then executed each time the anaconda/cadquery env starts up

then after restarting your cadquery ENV, open a terminal and execute "freecad"
