Will installing new Python version mess with app?

As the title implies, I am in need of Python 3.10.9 for a different program outside of deep faking and I was wondering if Faceswap will have issues if I have it installed. I attempted to search the forums for an answer and could not find one.

If you installed Faceswap properly (using the installer or proper guide) then installing other Python instances shouldn't do anything to FaceSwap. However, since you've already got Conda installed with Faceswap I suggest that you install that other application in a proper conda environment. See the guide here: https://conda.io/projects/conda/en/late ... arted.html . Conda keeps all your python versions and libraries separate so nothing interferes with each other.

Either way, should be fine, but it's a good habit to use the conda environments whenever possible.
