[New-bugs-announce] [issue25396] A Python runtime not could be located.

[Brian]

New submission from Brian:

Hello - I'm new to this community and an system error brings me here.  Thank you all in advance for any help and support!

I'm using a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013) with OS 10.11 El Capitan.  I receive the following error every 15-30 minutes:

--------------------
"Utility[601]: A Python runtime not could be located.  You may need to install a framework build of Python, or edit the PyRuntimeLocations array in this application's Info.plist file."

I have the option to "Open Console" or "Terminate" to clear the window.
--------------------


I wasn't aware of Python before the error popped up which leads me to believe a third party application used/uses Python in the background.

I installed Python 3.5.0 and I still received the error.  I removed Python 3.5.0 and I still received the error.  I installed Python 2.7.10 and I still received the error.  I removed Python 2.7.10 and I still received the error.

I'm at a loss for options moving forward and the error window popping up every 20 minutes is not the most ideal situation for teaching via PowerPoint.  

HELP :) If there's a diagnostic report I need to run, please let me know and I'll run it.

Thank you in advance,
Brian
