RIDE-1.5.2.1 is not working if I install 1.7.3.1 and reinstall 1.5.2.1 version
I have updated my RIDE to 1.7.3.1 and due to the grid editor issues I wanted to switch back to 1.5.2.1 version but RIDE not working properly with 1.5.2.1 version (Getting an exception when I run ride.py from cmd - Attached screenshot below)

Version Details: Windows 10 Python--2.7.15 (using anaconda) robotframework -3.0.4
Same problem for me .. !
it seems that the problem can be related to additional information in library keyword database added in 1.7.3. try to remove libraryrkeywords.db file from %AppData%\robotframework\ride (backup as always) The database work as a cache for keywords Ride should create it on next start if it is missing.
It's work ! Really thx !
@kajamoihdeen You said:
due to the grid editor issues

but It works the same way as 1.7V, for example I can't show my selection in the grid, although the selection works
@Carlzkh You can see that fixed in current development version:
pip install -U https://github.com/robotframework/RIDE/archive/master.zip

This will have to be started in python3 to work, but it will give you an error when it's started The ride can be started by clicking ok in the error box, but there are fewer menus and features,eg run

@Carlzkh That maybe a similar problem of the initial report. I now see that you have an Asian code character mapping. It may be that you have Include or exclude fields with tags containing Chinese characters. If so, you can make a backup copy of settings.cfg and then delete and start RIDE again.
You may also, only delete the robot_exclude_tags and robot_include_tags from settings.cfg.

Which path? I found many settings.cfg on my computer,and There are others with similar names

@Carlzkh It in is the %APPDATA%\RobotFramework\ride
(or C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\RobotFramework\ride )

After deleting settings.cfg, ride will not start

@Carlzkh Your screen capture shows you starting python3 (it starts and closes, that is normal). To start RIDE, you could have created the Desktop Shortcut from Tools. Open a command window and enter:
python -m robotide.__init__
or ride.py

@ashishp100194 That is a known problem when using python 3.8. We have placed a warning on README project page, and search the Issues for similar problem.
@ashishp100194 That is a known problem when using python 3.8. We have placed a warning on README project page, and search the Issues for similar problem.
So is there any workaround or solution for this issue?
No.
any hot fix ? or patch for this issue?
The original issue has a workaround. The Python 3.8, problem will not be fixed in this version, and there is a proper issue for that.
Closing because should have lost relevance for modern systems. Current versions are:
- Python 3.11
- wxPython 4.2.1
- RIDE 2.0.7 (and 2.0.8dev13)
