I have installed PyAEDT using the Ansys Python Manager, version 3.13.
I am trying to run the following script to load and modify an existing project. I have confirmed the project exists / path correctness and I have permissions to edit the file.
from ansys.aedt.core import *
app_version="2025.2"
non_graphical=False
close_on_exit=True
student_version=False
project_file="G:\\projects\\am62_som\\hw\\pcb\\90-000459_MitySOM_AM62xx\\Ansys\\90-000459_MitySOM_AM62XX.siwaveresults\\Designer\\DDR_Write_schematic.aedt"
dt = Desktop(version=app_version, non_graphical=non_graphical, student_version=student_version, close_on_exit=close_on_exit, new_desktop=False)
dt.load_project(project_file=project_file)
The results from running the command:

I enabled additional debug and launched the AEDT from the command line per the documentation, the only additional error I am seeing in any of the log files is below:

Is there a feature or enablement I need to run the PyAEDT commands to support scripting the tool?
Thanks,
Mike
