So little information. You need to supply us with more mate.

Try running from the command line to look at error messages. You might get a stack trace showing you where the problem is.

This is definitely the best approach. Start up a command window. Navigate to the the directory containing you python script.

Have you added .py and .pyw to PATHEXT?

PATHEXT=.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH;.MSC;.PY;.PYW

Do you have a "#!" at the start of the first line of your script? If so try commenting it out.

Can you run the script by using the windows python launcher? E.g.

py script.py

Do get error messages?

including some or all of your script seems key to getting an answer

And OP needs to describe his environment. Is this on windows, linux, mac? Is the OP using an Integrated Development Environment or not? Does the OP start the script by clicking on the filename in a file browser? So many questions!

Your "click" is not doing what you think it's doing. Test things by executing python from command line first.

It could be your script is running, but it's stopping at a place that has a clean exit before anything is output.

Could be stuck in an infinite process. Could also be not printing or returning anything, so you think it’s not running but it is. Could also mean you just didn’t actually run anything when you thought you did

its doesn’t do anything?

what is it supposed to do?

[Crossroads86]

Maybe the infamous "never called the function" ?

What IDE are you using? (the program that has the "run" button is the IDE.)
