Hi CaptainMitsumoto,

Did you follow the instructions given by the installer to read the log file? We don't have access to your log file, only you do. Can you see what file cannot be found?

Did you try some basic googling? I'm not a Windows guru, but this:

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-windows_install/0x80070002-the-system-cannot-find-the-file/cad10f8d-79f2-4a10-953f-b85478b3e1b7


suggests that the problem is related to permissions, or your OS installation, not to the installer itself. Do you have administrator privileges? Did you check your .Net framework? What version of Windows are you using?

If you have already received some suggestions which did not work, would you mind telling us what you already tried so we don't waste our time, and yours, telling you what you have already tried.

Did you successfully install the older version of Python? If so, there is nothing stopping you from coding in 3.8 and upgrading later.
