Windows 7 Needed to Rename Python27 to install

#1

Was **unable **to install Sublime Text until I tried temporally renaming DIR Python27 to Python27_. Then I was able to complete setup and run Sublime with Python27 DIR name restored.

However, many menu items are greyed out UNLESS I rename Python27 back to a temp name.

Seems like a conflict with Sublime Python and my System Python.

Any suggestions?

Thank you :smile:

This is to bump this thread.

For some reason, I need to first, temporarily rename my default system python from Python27 to _Python and THEN launch Sublime. THEN I can restore Python dir name. Sublime is fully functional then.

Any suggestions?

Thank you :smile:

After reviewing this thread:

I did the following:

I added Sublime install DIR to PATH
Created a batchfile subl.bat with:

@SET PYTHONPATH= @start sublime_text.exe %*

I have a \autostart_console.bat which in part contains:

@start C:\Sublime\subl.bat @activate.bat

The activate.bat sets up my virtualenv.

Hope this helps. If there is a better idea, please let me know.
