There is an exact version of this thread for linux (here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=51905) and it seems to be fixed for linux.

The bug is that whenever I try to run a plugin I get an error message that says "Python Script Failed" special://home/plugins/programs/Launcher/default.py
I've tried version 1.02 of Launcher and I've tried several plugins and I get the same error message from them all.

But the bug is still present for Windows and I know more than me have this issue.
My debug log is here: http://pastebin.com/f13e870f6
I have this exact same issue, just downloaded the latest build for everything. Any ideas for Windows users?
Your debug log does not show any invocation of the Launcher plugin. Please provide the log that does.
Here a fresh log of trying to start Launcher (1.02): http://pastebin.com/f202ddd02
A have the same problem. I made new, clean install, used newest build and here is my log after starting Applemovie trailer plugin.

So, it isn't ALL plugins. It is just the launcher plugin.

Make sure you set the thumbs_path properly for the plugin. Before launching the plugin, use the context menu and goto plugin settings. Then change the thumbnails path.

I pointed mine to : special://masterprofile/Thumbnails/Programs
hancut, your issue is different. Please create a new thread and don't hijack. Also, your log is not a debug log.

It's ALL plugins. I was told to try Launcher 1.02 because it solved the problem for some people. Didn't fix my issue and the first debug log I pasted is when I try to run a plugin called Sverigestelevision. I've tried several plugins for Youtube, etc and none works.
Well, the launcher one is due to what I mentioned. Change the path properly.
What about all other scripts that don't work? I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one with this bug as well.
Since this bug is fixed in the Linux version, wouldn't it be quite easy to fix it in the Windows version as well? I apologize if I'm completely off.. I just want to be able to use scripts/plugins Sad
Any news on this? Tried several XBMC builds, clean install, but all fail on all plugins I have tried, same error as OP. Win7 64bit
Installed as portable mode in Win7 64 and all is well Oo Has this got anything to do with the location it stores the settings in, in win7?

Tried reinstalling using portable mode, after removing everything including my profile directory. Still not working for me Sad

windows and linux have the same problem.
But I am a freshman of XBMC,
(I check out source code and build and "browser" has no "video plugins" item. so I copy plugin to ~.xbmc/pugin/video/)

And download compiled binary file for windows directly, it has "video plugins" item.

from the document,and I know plugins must start like: plugin://.../default.py
but its special://.../default.py

here is error-image:
