Thank you. I misread that.
To make updating OctoPrint easier on my Windows computer, I created this .BAT file. I just put the .BAT file on my Windows desktop and double-click it when I need to update. It automatically triggers the User Account Control (UAC) prompt to elevate to admin rights, kills the existing server if it's running, updates, and starts the server back up.
If you have OctoPrint set up to run as a service, the stopping and restarting commands in here probably won't work. I know there are command lines to stop and start services though so you could modify the BAT file replace those parts.
@echo off
REM Trigger UAC for admin rights
cd /D "%~dp0"
if not "%1"=="am_admin" (powershell start -verb runas '%0' am_admin & exit /b)
cls
echo.
echo.
echo Ready to update the OctoPrint server.
echo.
echo.
echo Press CTRL-C to quit or
pause
REM Kill running server
taskkill /IM octoprint.exe /T /F
REM Perform update
echo.
echo.
echo Updating...
cd C:\Octoprint
call venv\Scripts\activate.bat
pip install --upgrade https://get.OctoPrint.org/latest
REM Restart the server
C:\Octoprint\venv\Scripts\octoprint.exe serve
echo.
echo.
echo.
echo OctoPrint Server update is complete.

I couldn't for the life of me fix this issue.. Most things point at having to install for "all users" which I surely did. Tried multiple versions of Python and reinstallations.
Anyway. A workaround was to install the virtualenv package with pip and then use that to create the virtual environment (pip install virtualenv) and then I went to C:\OctoPrint and ran "C:\Program Files\Python310\Scripts\virtualenv.exe" venv
This is completely new to me, but I am trying to get things going on an old laptop, clean win10 install, all updates done, followed this tutorial to the letter, all successful up until there are some yellow lines about missing pyproject.toml or something, I looked up the github link as suggested, but cannot make heads or tails from this, I know I am probably just missing something, but I have to ask how can I get this to work because the successfull install prompt never appeared and octoprint serve does not start the server, just gives another error and many lines of code...
There are no errors in your screenshot. Just some warnings. It also says 'Successfully installed' there, followed by the list of packages it has installed.
Please share the error you have instead.
My apologies, I didn't add the second screenshot, I rebooted the machine, I ran the serve command again, I'll also put the entire output that it shows which is a very long affair...

Had the same problem today.
Check your version of Python, it should be between 3.7 and 3.9 (I have 3.9 and it works).
If that doesn't fix it have a look at your Visual Studio settings.
Hopefully, this helps.
HI I am getting an error when trying to run with octoprint serve it says ImportError: cannot import name 'formatargspec' from 'inspect' (C:\Program Files\Python311\Lib\inspect.py) what does this mean and how can I fix it.
OctoPrint is not yet compatible with Python 3.11, as pointed out at the beginning of this guide:
It will be soon, however: Compatibility with Python 3.11 · Issue #4488 · OctoPrint/OctoPrint · GitHub

do you think it could be the fact that im on windows 11 or that im on py 3.10.9
The error message shows you are using Python 3.11.
i am having trouble connecting my cr-10 smart to octoprint. Do you need a pi if you installed it on windows
For anyone with issues connecting to a Prusa MK3 over USB cable, try the following settings
In printer: RPI Port: OFF
In Octoprint:
COM port: Manually select
BAUD rate: AUTO
how are you connecting your PC to the printer? CR-10 Smart requires modding the hardware to connect to USB.
This is the second time I am following this walk thru and for some reason it is not working, getting a lot of errors. Attached is a Zip with a txt file with the output after running octoprint serve. Thoughts?
UPDATE: I installed Python 3.11, removed and installed 3.10.9 and now it is working.

can someone please help me fix why my Logitech C922 doesn't show the stream? it works on the camera app, but not in Octoprint server. I saw that people changed their port or updated the URL and it worked. I tried it but it still doesn't show the stream and I get the broken image icon. My current setting is:
The first question is have you installed anything to stream the webcam. In this guide it suggests installing Yawcam to provide the stream. It also says, if you have installed that, to configure the stream URL as such:
The current setting you have I would say is almost guaranteed to not work, unless you have setup a reverse proxy on port 25000 and are using something that has the same parameters as mjpg streamer.

it worked! thank you!
Did you ever find a solution for this? I'm getting the same error.
