Not the solution to my problem as it still fails: 

* - For others doing the course and having the same Blender 2.92.+ problems as me, you can get the Long Term Support LTS version of Blender 2.83.12 here: https://www.blender.org/download/Blender2.83/blender-2.83.12-windows64.zip

Note that there is may be bug fix incremental releases to the LTS Blender 2.83.+ release. 

Look here: Long-term Support — blender.org

So then I will try Blender 2.79b Standalone then located at Index of /release/Blender2.79/  

Blender 2.79 works; am I suppose to have some addon enabled in the later versions perhaps?

*****

The Rig UI is not being shown. Why is this happening? I have Blender 2.92.0. I clicked on "Allow Execution of Scripts". 

Is it because the Windows 10 path is too long? I did have to shorten "exercise" in the file name to "ex" already/

In the mean time I will retry in the root file system of the system disk.

OK, so I tried that to no avail. Also I've found if I have the 'system console' shown on the screen, load the animation_vonnbots_280.py and click the 'run' play arrow in the text window Blender stops responding.

I guess I need to report a bug to Blender Foundation? Or is there a '2.8.+ blend file to 2.9.+ blend file' upgrade process I should be doing to be trying these VonnBot resource animation lessons?

So that done, I will download, install & try again with a separate Blender 2.8.+ install.

Thanks.

Hi there,

Hopefully someone can help me with this...When I link the character into a new blend file, I can't see the Python Script that controls the UI in the text editor.  I tried going to the 'open' menu in the text deitor and looking for the file, but I can't find it.

Help!

can't copy the key on the cursor in 2.82

A little bit lost during animation in 2,8 version of the scene... I can see and can animate rig controls for root, spin, eyes etc.... But I can't see rig for the antenna. I don't see controls for it and I can't animate bones for it, because I can't see them either. What did I miss?

i have submitted the exercise and you did not tell me to make any corections however it has not been graded
