Remember to:

  • Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
  • Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
  • Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

#

pip install pygame

#

sacred shale
#

yes

#

lament goblet
#

yes it is

gilded mason
#

ok then why it give me this error

sacred shale
#

you installed python 3.13?

lament goblet
#

gilded mason
#

#

because iam was trying to run something it needed 3 things

sacred shale
#

you sure? the error shows a path o a Python313 folder

gilded mason
#

but one installed fine💀

sacred shale
#

what does pip -V output?

gilded mason
#

pip 24.0 from C:\Users\Sohaib jebreel\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\Lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.13)

lament goblet
#

it is 3.13 indeed

gilded mason
#

so?

#

what do i have to do

sacred shale
#

then that's too new. uninstall it. you can find it in you windows settings -> apps or something

lament goblet
#

you can install a older version i would say 3.11 would be fine

gilded mason
#

i delete 3.13 or 3.8?

#

i have two of these

lament goblet
#

you dont need to delete

#

just install a newer version and you can set the alias to that

gilded mason
#

do i install 3.11?

sacred shale
#

3.13 is too new. pygame won't work with that version

lament goblet
#

or simply use python<version>

sacred shale
#

(you should maybe even remove all and just install python 3.12 )
