I understand that you're encountering a "NO MODULE PWD" error while using the TEXTLOADER in the latest version of langchain_community (0.0.20) on a Windows system. This issue seems to be related to the pwd module, which is not available on Windows.

A similar issue was reported in the LangChain repository, specifically in the issue #17514. The problem was addressed in the pull request #17532 and the corresponding commits 7ae3ce60 and c76a7ff3. The solution involved moving the import pwd statement to a try-catch block to handle the ModuleNotFoundError.

However, it seems that the issue persists in the versions langchain==0.1.7 and langchain-community==0.0.20. As a workaround, you could downgrade to the following versions where the issue is not present:

• langchain==0.1.6
• langchain-community==0.0.19
• langchain-core==0.1.23

You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:

pip install langchain==0.1.6 langchain-community==0.0.19 langchain-core==0.1.23

Please note that this is a temporary solution, and the LangChain team is likely working on a fix for the newer versions. Keep an eye on the repository for updates. If you have any further issues, feel free to ask.
