Hello,

Yes my Python is 3.7.

I am trying to use cygwin to access the GNU tools since I do not have VS. We are a small company.
I cannot get the edksetup.bat to execute correctly. It is a problem setting up all the environment.
Is there an easier way? Am I on the right path?

Have you installed the up-to-date Python requirements? “pip install –upgrade -r pip-requirements.txt”?

 

That’s the first thing I would check. Otherwise, happy to look at the problem with you.
