PyScripter doesn't accept ArcGIS Pro 3.0 Python environment

[HanliePetoors]

Hi,

I'm working in 

• Windows 10 Professional X64

• PyScripter 3.6.3.0 X64

• ArcGIS Pro 3.0

After upgrading from ArcGIS Pro 2.9 to 3.0 PyScripter no longer accepts the ArcGIS Pro Python environment as a Python version. When I try to add the folder 
C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3
as a version in PyScripter, I get the error:

"PyScripter could not find a usable Python installation at the specified path."

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks

Hanlie

I've got exactly the same issue. @HanliePetoors did you find a resolution?

Hi Chris,

Unfortunately not.

My workaround was to use a different Python Editor - I chose Thonny.

Since posting the question I've found a solution, which was to upgrade PyScripter to version 3.6.4 x64.

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

If you have a cloned python environment created in 2.9 you will need to upgrade that too (from the Package Manager in Pro).
