embedPy installation error

I would try:

python -m pip install libpython 

If still failing see output from https://pypi.org/project/find-libpython/

pip install find_libpython 

>>> from find_libpython import find_libpython
>>> find_libpython()

It looks like I didn’t install pip correctly, so after making sure I updated my environment variables and running

C:\Users\a623>python -m ensurepip

I was able to run the following:

C:\Users\a623>python -m pip install libpython

Then, I ran the test.q script, which weirdly gives me the same error as before:

I’m not sure why I’m getting the same error, because it looks like I have pip set up correctly and installed libpython, as you can see above.

When I try to reinstall libpython I get the error below:

Any idea what’s going on here?

Can you try https://pypi.org/project/find-libpython/

pip install find_libpython 

>>> from find_libpython import find_libpython
>>> find_libpython()

What is the output?
