Hey @Kiara, can you check what python version do you have?

32 bit I guess...

Uninstall the 32 bit and Install the 64 bit

ohh thanks, that cleared the error..

---

this worked...

All your dependencies are included?

---

This error usually bothers when each package's dependencies aren't satisfied. You might be either missing out on including dependency or might have missed out on the order.

For example, You could be installing a package who is dependant on a certificate which is only being installed later.

Answer 1

Hey @Kiara, Check your python version, uninstall if its 32 bit and re-install the 64 bit one.

Thanks
