MCU Xpresso Config Tools installation

[PeteHawkins]

Is there a document that describes the installation requirements / prerequisites for the MCU Xpresso Config Tools?

I installed the tools on a 64-bit Windows 10 system, and tried to run elftosb.exe.  It gave the following error:

 Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process using '"C:\Python310-64\python.exe" "C:\nxp\MCUX_CFG_v13.1\bin\python3\bin\elftosb.exe" ': The system cannot find the file specified.

So, I installed Python 3.10 64 bit in that location.  Now, when I try to run elftosb.exe, it give the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python310-64\lib\runpy.py", line 196, in _run_module_as_main
return _run_code(code, main_globals, None,
File "C:\Python310-64\lib\runpy.py", line 86, in _run_code
exec(code, run_globals)
File "C:\nxp\MCUX_CFG_v13.1\bin\python3\bin\elftosb.exe\__main__.py", line 4, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'spsdk'

I don't know if there is a required environment variable, path setting, or something else.  Is this documented somewhere?

Thank you

Thank you.  My system meets the minimum requirements.  I uninstalled the Config Tools, and reinstalled them following the instructions in the installation guide.  Unfortunately, I still get the same error (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'spsdk') when I try to run elftosb.exe from the command line in the C:\nxp\MCUX_CFG_v13.1\bin\python3\bin folder.
