'''Problem''':

This post is based on a troubleshooting thread found on the C3 forums here: http://customscreators.com/index.php?/topic/19095-i-really-gotta-fix-cat-now-i-cant-take-this/

CAT ran fine on Reaper x64 with 64-bit Python but on Reaper 4.22 (32bit) with Python 2.7.0 (32bit) I get this error when loading CAT:

Script execution error

<nowiki>Traceback (most recent call last):
File "CAT.py", line 3, in <module>

'''Reaper Configuration''':

Follow these steps to check your Reaper configuration:

# In Reaper click the Options menu, and then click Preferences.
# In the left hand panel scroll down and select ReaScript from the list.
# Check that the Enable check-box is checked and that python2.7.dll is installed (Figure 1).
# Click OK.

'''Troubleshooting''':

Reaper contains a custom action for CAT. If needed this action can be removed as follows:

# In Reaper click the Actions menu, and then click Show action list.
# In the Actions window select Custom: CAT.py and then click the Delete button (Figure 2).
# Click OK.

'''Solution''':

The problem is that Python x64 is still being loaded despite the fact that the 32 bit version of Python has been installed. The solution is as follows:

* Uninstall Python versions and delete the C:\Python27 folder.
* Re-install Python 2.7 (32 bit).
