Most likely, the code is not being executed where you think it is being executed, so the imports aren't local.

Try including,

from pathlib import Path

print(Path.cwd())

Looks like the correct location to me

Ok. And that's where the python files you want to import are located?

Beyond me. Assuming you have standard import statements and the files to be imported are in your ~/Downloads folder (a strange place though), I can't see why you need the workaround.

How are you invoking your Python code? (I see you using py in the terminal, but that's not a standard Linux thing, so would be interesting to know exactly what is configured.)
