Hi @salvafari,
Please post the output of the command pyrevit env without the final dot, as you can see the output you posted doesn't tell us anything.

Please tell me if you need more informations

Indeed we need more info: when you say that it doesn't work anymore, do you mean that it worked before? What has changed?
Have you really tried to follow the troubleshooting guide?

Hi @Michgadu8 sorry for the waiting...
You typed some commands wrong.
Please follow the troubleshooting guide you'll find at the next post.

/install-fix

[sanzoghenzo]

Try these steps:

1. Uninstall pyRevit

2. Delete C:\ProgramData and %AppData%\ pyRevit and pyrevit-master folders

3. Move all Revit addins to a temporary location. Usual addins locations include:
   - %AppData%\Autodesk\Revit\Addins
   - %AppData%\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins
   - %ProgramData%\Autodesk\Revit\Addins
   - %ProgramData%\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins

4. [Reboot computer]

5. Reinstall pyRevit

6. Started each version of Revit confirming pyRevit successfully compiled at startup.

7. Move all Revit addins that were moved in step 3 back to their original location.
   You may want to add them one at a time and start a revit session everytime to figure out which ones are causing the issue.

We see this issue in many computers with the same error. pyRevit doesn't work for any Revit version for our case.
