  and dont want to install cadquery/ build123d again then copy cadquery/ build123d package & dependancies from old path folder to C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Programs\FreeCAD 1.0\bin\Lib\site-packages\ (* Note need checking requirement dependancies of cadquery/build123d, some packages may already got in Freecad)
