It show up in the task manager but not in the windows right corner and no windows open
The monitor cant see the worker at all

Sounds like a python 2 vs 3 issue - unicode does not exist in Python 3.
The other error is probably also of the same cause.
The path thinkbox-conda comes from a compiled module, and it is from the original path where it was developed.
Thanks for the suggestion
I finally fixed the problem by your hint
When I tried to set Deadline render with Houdini python 3 version
I set the env variable to force deadline running in python 3 instead of 2
I followed the instruction here
https://docs.thinkboxsoftware.com/products/deadline/10.1/1_User%20Manual/manual/python-upgrade.html
That’s why even after multiple times super clean install i still get the errors
After removing it and let deadline run in python 2 then the worker got running again
If you dont comment I will never have the hint to find the problem so thankssss
