Windows installation

[TomHilk-learning]

Before I could run main.py successfully, I had to run "pip install PySide6". Don't know why I did see it listed in requirements.txt. Failed again saying "ModuleNotFound: No module named 'Registry'.

Thanks for making this application.

Hi @TomHilk-learning,

There's a compatibility issue with Python 3.12. Please install Python 3.11 from the official Python website: https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3110/

If you don't already have Microsoft C++ Build Tools installed, you'll need to install them to compile required packages like libewf-python and pytsk3.

Steps to Resolve:

Step 1: Download and Install Microsoft C++ Build Tools - https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/
During the installation, make sure to select the following workloads:

• Desktop development with C++
• C++ build tools

Step 2: Open PowerShell as Administrator

Step 3: Verify Python 3.11 is Being Used
python --version

Step 4: Navigate to Project Directory
cd path\to\project

Step 5: Create a Virtual Environment
python -m venv venv

Step 6: Change the Execution Policy

• Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
• When prompted, press Y and hit Enter.

Step 7: Activate the Virtual Environment
.\venv\Scripts\Activate

Step 8: Install Project Dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
