Describe the bug
On Microsoft Windows, with usual Python installed, Modly first requires Python-embed (which can't create venvs by design) and then can't create venv.
Steps to reproduce
- Install latest Modly by cloning from GIT, as described in "Download - Alternative" section.
- After launch with "launch.bat" there is "python-embed not found" error.
- After manual downloading of embedded python 3.11.9, there is error "no module named venv".
