Windows install issues - Symbol library 'kikit' failed to load...sym not found
Prerequisites
- [x] I have read FAQ
- [x] I have searched existing issues (including closed ones)
- [x] I use KiKit at least version 1.7.2 (older version are not supported)
KiKit version
1.7.2
KiCAD version (only KiCAD 8 and 9 are supported)
9.0.4
Operating system
Windows 11 Enterprise
Description
Trying to follow GUI and libs installation and adding symbol library fails with following error:
Guessing its probably a Python thing and conflicting versions or something (it confuses me tbh)...
In KiCad command prompt 'kikit --help' shows what is expected. However, if I run the installer again it shows 'Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable' which is probably the issue right?
So I tried running it like this: C:\Program Files\KiCad\9.0\bin>"C:\Program Files\KiCad\9.0\bin\Scripts\pip3.exe" install kikit
...but I got the same 'Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable'
Steps to Reproduce
Follow installation instructions up to adding the symbol library
