Hello,

I have tried to install all required stuff from scratch on a fresh and non-admin “avuser” user account on a Windows 10 Pro (21H2) machine. Here is what it did, without having to get admin rights at anytime:

1. install Scilab 2023.1.0 in default path
2. install python for windows ([https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.11.5/python-3.11.5-amd64.exe](https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.11.5/python-3.11.5-amd64.exe)) and check “add Python to path” during installation
3. pip install jupyter (on cmd command line)
4. pip install scilab\_kernel (on cmd command line)
5. Add Scilab `bin` folder to Path user environment variable (on cmd command line)

```auto
setx Path "%Path%;C:\Users\avuser\AppData\Local\scilab-2023.1.0\bin"

```

Note: the `SCILAB_EXECUTABLE` environment variable seems useless in the current version of the Scilab kernel.

1. logout/login the Windows session.

I was then able to launch a notebook (on cmd command line) with:

```auto
python -m notebook

```

The notebook started with the default Python kernel, I then choosed ‘Scilab’ from the kernel menu, and typed in the first cell

```auto
plot

```

followed by Ctrl + Enter, I obtained the following:
