Hm that’s strange, 3.7 should be supported, but we can look into making sure it is supported as expected on windows. Glad you were able to get past the errors.

Thanks @erohmensing , @akelad for your responses. I was able to navigate past the errors by creating a virtual python environment using python = 3.6, My anaconda python = 3.7 was giving me issues.
