Hi, guys. I just met two problems and am hoping that if you could help me.
The first one is that I cannot run my own experiment on another Windows 7 computer.
I used my Windows 10 to create it and when I open it on that Windows 7, it gave me this info:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Program Files\PsychoPy\lib\site-packages\psychopy\app\builder\builder.py", line 1206, in runFile

File "C:\Program Files\PsychoPy\lib\site-packages\psychopy\data\utils.py", line 660, in getDateStr
nowStr = now.strftime(format)
ValueError: embedded null byte
On my Windows 10, the PsychoPy version is PsychoPy-2022.2.4-win64
and the version on that Windows 7 is… let me check… it says “v3.2.4”
The second problem is that when I tried to install the “2022.2.4” version to my Windows 7, the install process went down when the whole process is just about to complete.
I don’t know how to solve these problems and if solved I can let many participants do my experiment together. Looking forward to any suggestion. Thank you.
