  • Where is the Levenshtein package installed? Is this directory part of the sys.path variable?

The error happens because Anaconda does not ship with the Levenshtein package. You'll have to install it.



Usually, you want to install python packages on Jupyter Notebook by using the conda command. I was having trouble installing this package in particular on a Windows, however, simply because Windows Defender held out the process indefinitely.



The way I managed to install it as by using pip in Windows's cmd. First you have to figure out were the python executable from your Notebook is running.



In your notebook:



import sys

{sys.executable}


Copy the path the cell outputs, open the cmd. There, use the following command:



[PASTE THE PATH HERE] -m pip install python-levenshtein


After that you should be able to import Levenshtein.

            Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

            Image
            0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem?
