You might try installing WSL2 and running it from there.

Apparently the recommendation is msys2 and a package in there --- which

be included?

Hi
Can you try to Copy the Missing DLL File next to the openscad.exe File ?
You can find IT in the mys Installation.
Let me know!

Hi Sanjeev , i got only installers for Linux and likely also for Windows
but i believe at the current Stage IT could BE Tricky to get or Working in
again for Windows. In any cause IT should very easy to Compile IT for Linux
and MacOs but please let me know in Case i am wrong. You can find Brief
compiling instructions in my Homepage.

Okay, managed to find the 64-bit of the libpython3.10.dll at:
https://www.dllme.com/getfile.php?file=51483&id=d5a47f583a7883d25ba647849a990f3b

and downloading that and placing it in the folder:
"C:\Program Files\Openscad\libpython3.10.dll"

changed the message to:

The code execution cannot proceed because libgcc_s_seh-1.dll
was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.

which suggests that this will be an exercise in downloading many, many such files.
Would it be possible to bundle up and include all the necessary DLLs to run this program in the install file?
Also, setting it up to run w/ a commonly used Python for Windows install would make this far more accessible to typical users.
