C:\Windows\system32>pyuic4 'pyuic4' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I actually dont't know where the pyuic file should be located, should PyQt, be located within the Python files or something?

Solution

  • When you install PyQt, it gets install under Python's site-packages.

    There is a batch file pyuic.bat under the <PYTHON_INSTALL_DIR>\Lib\site-packages\PyQt4. Use this batch to run your command.

    If you look into the content of the batch file you will see that it calls the Python interpreter with PyQt4\uic\pyuic.py and the given arguments.
