I have installed the new Spyder, but where is the Spyder.exe file? The installer has removed the old Spider, with the icon, and left me now obvious way to start the program.

 

???? Regards John

Hi John,

If you used the Windows installer you should be able to find the application shortcut from the Windows Start menu. Being there, search for Spyder and if the shortcut is available you should see something like this:

Let us know if the info above helps!

Best regards,

Thanks for your help Daniel. I resolved the matter in the end.

 

I had Spyder installed on a removable hard drive, D:. When I installed the new version I installed it on my C:drive, by accident, I resolved by uninstalling Spyder and re-installing it on the D: drive again. Everything works as expected. I don’t know why, there are somethings best let go 😊
