Using the modified version 8.3.4 from the first post, when initially scanning any game, it immediately returns an error.

Do you have character os?
Try using osc(for example character Oscar)
os is a python function built into RenPy.

My operating system is Windows 11 24H2 x64.
Python version 3.12.6
Normal renpy scans and builds ports without errors. But, the saves are in the system folder and are deleted with the game. It is the modified file 00sync.rpy that gives errors. If you use the standard file, the ports are collected, but the saves are not in the documents folder.

For the error you posted above, my comment stands.
Also you should think about placing RenPy SDK in the root of your drive to avoid file length errors.

Search the game's code for "os"
The developer should never use the variable "os" for anything.

Ren'py sdk 8.0+ previously presented an error if the SDK was not on the PC's C drive, try testing it if it is not.
Another error is that in some games the SDK gives an error if the antivirus is active. I had this error in 3 games with Renpy 8.3.

Now this I've never come across, I've been using a ram drive Z:\ for years now for SDK building games both there and projects folder in H:\ drive.
Edit: another odd error someone else had was caused by using a VPN while building.

All of my games have been built using drive S:, so I'm skeptical about that claim.
