• Cannot Open OSCAD Workspace in Windows 7 and Cannot Find KiCad in Installation Folders

  I installed the OSCAD installer for Windows 7 from the website, and after installing it, ran the software.When I try to run OSCAD from the Start Menu, the cmd flashes for a second, and then the software doesn't launch. I took a screenshot, and found out that the cmd gave this:C:\OSCAD> cd OSCADC:\OSCAD\OSCAD> cd forntEndC:\OSCAD\OSCAD\forntEnd>python oscad.py'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.Apparently, I found a way to 'fix' this. I opened cmd, and typed out all of the above manually. the last command I changed to "oscad.py" instead of "python oscad.py", and the little window with the OSCAD logo opened. But when I created a new project, only the Toolkit appeared, and no workspace was on the screen.???
