I have just learned that Blender 5.1 which is currently in Beta will be updating it's bundled Python 3.11 will be instead be bundled with Python 3.13 which it seems to be causing many add-ons not to register or load on launching of Blender most add-on developers are already aware of this issue but if you are trying out the Blender 5.1 beta release and you run into this check with your add-on developers website or where you got the add-on from for patch releases this is affecting many after market add-ons. If I hear any further information on this I will add to this thread
