What happens when you run: wandb run python tutorial.py

That is the only supported way to use wandb with windows.

Hey @TKassis it should work fine in jupyter. @MbProg we’re going to push a new version of the cli this week that removes the requirement for wandb run on windows and fixes the error above. If you would like to try it now you can install with pip install --upgrade git+git://github.com/wandb/client.git@feature/windows_no_run#egg=wandb
