##Anaconda

Windows

• In Explorer, go to your Anaconda path.
  • e.g., C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Lib\site-packages
  • AppData is a "hidden" folder and can be seen by going to View and checking Hidden Items
• Create a text file and rename to a reasonable name
  • e.g., dymola-python-interface.pth
  • When changing the text file extension you should see .txt. If that is not visible go to View and check File name extensions.
• Open up dymola-python-interface.pth and add the path to the dymola.egg file. Save and close.
  • e.g., C:\Program Files\Dymola 2021\Modelica\Library\python_interface\dymola.egg
• Open a new anaconda tool (e.g., jupyter notebook, terminal, or spyder) and dymola should not be able to be loaded.
  • import dymola
