• Implement Python within .Net using Pythonnet

I have been researching all day and have tried everything I could find. It crashes when trying to set the PythonHome variable.

Python is installed at c:\Python36.
Paths were added for C:\Python36, C:\Python36\lib\site-packages, C:\Python36\scripts, C:\Python36\lib (redundant, but they were added one at a time trying ANYTHING).

I have added the following to try and fix path variables.

        string envPythonHome = @"C:\Python36";
        string envPythonLib = envPythonHome + @"\Lib\site-packages";
        PythonEngine.PythonHome = envPythonHome;
        PythonEngine.PythonPath = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("PYTHONPATH");
        Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("PYTHONHOME", envPythonHome, EnvironmentVariableTarget.Process);
        Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", envPythonHome + ";" + Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", EnvironmentVariableTarget.Machine),
            EnvironmentVariableTarget.Process);

        Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("PYTHONPATH", envPythonLib, EnvironmentVariableTarget.Process);

        PythonEngine.Initialize();

I installed using pip install pythonnet

I have upgraded pip, setuptools, installed wheel

I have tried using the build target x64 and x86.

I checked the

I followed all of these links and couldn't find anything undone.
#259 #463 #467

I made sure the python36 was in the python.runtime.csproj.

I made sure the python.runtime.dll was in the site-packages folder that was referenced in the path.

I am sure there are additional steps I have tried, but that is all I can remember at the moment. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
