TeXworks: Minted cannot find file or directory

Question

I cannot get minted running with TeXworks on Windows 10 and I dont know why…

This is my .tex file:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{minted}

\begin{document}

\begin{listing}[h!]
    \begin{minted}{Python}
        def hello_world():
            print("Hello floating world!")
    \end{minted}
    \inputminted{pascal}{screentime/screentime.pas} 
    \caption{Floating listing.}
    \label{lst:hello}
\end{listing}

\end{document}

Compile error:

! Package minted Error: Missing Pygments output; \inputminted was
probably given a file that does not exist--otherwise, you may need 
the outputdir package option, or may be using an incompatible build tool,
or may be using frozencache with a missing file.

See the minted package documentation for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.

? 

I have python 3.9.5 installed (Miniconda), i have pygmentize in "C:\Users\schodmi\Miniconda3\Scripts" and added it to my environment variables.

It seems that the .pyg files are stored in %AppData%/../Temp and cannot be found by TeXworks but I did not find any help on this issue.
