Hello,

We noticed that an error may occur on Windows when you try to launch Persalys like this one :

This is because you have spaces in you installation path. We already made a correction for the next version but in case you need the solution :

- open the following directory _instal\_dir_\Lib\site-packages\persalys
- open the file persalys.vbs
- modify the line 28 by this :  
`wshShell.Run chr(34) & fso.BuildPath(currentDirectory, "persalys.exe") & chr(34)`
