Hi ashwa,

Correct, ctypes is not supported at this time.

I have added this thread to a feature request in our product enhancement database to include ctypes in Python for Windows version of SecureCRT. Should a future release of SecureCRT include this feature, notification will be posted here.

If you prefer direct email notification, send an email to support@vandyke.com and include Feature Request - Forum Thread #13636 in the subject line or use this form from the support page of our website.

Hi ashwa,

I wanted to let you know the ctypes module should work with SecureCRT v9.0, currently in beta 1 release:

Changes in SecureCRT 9.0 (Beta 1) -- September 24, 2020
-------------------------------------------------------
New Features:

• Windows: Added support for Python 3. Python 3.8(available at python.org) must be installed and the script's first line must be: # $language = "python3". Since support for Python 3 is provided through an external module, Python 3 libraries can be used in SecureCRT scripts.

Note that this is Windows only support at this time. In fact, we released beta 1 installers *only* for Windows. We hope to include all platforms in later releases.
