  • Not sure if this will help, but according to their website you should install pygame in the user directory. So: py -3.10 -m pip install -U pygame --user Commented Nov 27, 2022 at 10:42
  • Thanks for trying, doesn't work unfortunately :( Commented Nov 27, 2022 at 10:45
  • Did you try upgrading pip? pip install --upgrade pip Commented Nov 27, 2022 at 10:51
  • none of these worked :(, thanks tho Commented Nov 27, 2022 at 11:00
  • I sometimes get something similar. Updating all pip packages does it for me (stackoverflow.com/questions/2720014/…). Not sure how you do it in CMD on windows though Commented Nov 27, 2022 at 11:23
