Windows implementation issue: "QWindowsPipeWriter::write failed. (The handle is invalid.)"

[gregfitzgerald]

I am trying to implement the Windows version, and encountering a problem. When I open the GUI, it doesn't behave the way it was shown in the demo. Instead of listing out screenshots and providing feedback, the GUI screen remains empty. As soon as I open user_interface.py, the terminal reads "QWindowsPipeWriter::write failed. (The handle is invalid.)".

I don't know what the issue is. Any advice would be appreciated!

Same issue here

@VooDisss I resolved it. The issue is that you cloned the original repo rather than the fork, so it is using Mac OS syntax. To download the forked repo for Windows, go to the fork and choose the option to Download ZIP. This version won't have the issue because Windows-compatible syntax is used.

@gregfitzgerald Thanks for the follow-up, I have made this same mistake and solved it. I got it working after 1-2hours...
