I am experiencing a very similar problem to this one: Using multiple versions of Python
The context of my problem though I believe is different enough to warrant a separate question. I receive this error when trying to launch the non-commercial version of The Foundry's Nuke. The error manifests similarly to this:
http://community.thefoundry.co.uk/discussion/topic.aspx?f=197&t=113695
,except the error message returned before the command prompt immediately closes is that displayed in the first link. This leads me to believe that Nuke is trying to access the wrong version of Python (currently it is trying to access Python 3.5).
Assuming my line of thinking is correct, how can I change the version of Python that Nuke is attempting to access? None of the advice in the Foundry forum link proved successful either, I should mention. And according to what I have read,the latest version of Python to be used by Nuke is 2.7. So to ask the question more specifically, how can I make Nuke access Python 2.7 as opposed to Python 3.5? Both are installed on my desktop, 64-bit Windows 10.
The syntax error returned as the prompt closes and Nuke fails to launch
