[Python] WARNING:root:ASI SDK library not found in python

I'm trying to use the ASICamera2.dll library from a Python program, but I'm having trouble.

I installed ASIStudio V1.16 2025-06-26:

Telescope\>dir "c:\\Program Files\\ASIStudio\\ASICamera2.dll"


Volume in drive C is Acer
Volume Serial Number is 31AF-5CC7

Directory of c:\\Program Files\\ASIStudio

19/06/2025 07:43 2,764,800 ASICamera2.dll


1 File(s) 2,764,800 bytes
0 Dir(s) 62,379,802,624 bytes free


I ran a simple test:

Telescope\>python -c "import zwoasi, os; zwoasi.init(r'c:\\Program Files\\ASIStudio\\ASICamera2.dll')"
WARNING:root:ASI SDK library not found


The library isn't found.

Has anyone had the same problem? Thanks

I expected the library to be found and recognized.

I installed ASIStudio V1.16 2025-06-26 twice just to be safe.

I installed the new VC_redist.x64.exe

I installed the zwoasi:

Telescope\>pip install zwoasi
