FYI: I and chatGPT found a solution.

• One has to additionally install this:
  

• upon installation of the above, alphastats can still not be installed. One then has to do the following:
  

then it works in my hands

Thanks for reporting this (and also providing the solution)! I cannot fix this within the package (despite removing dependencies) as this is more related to Visual Studio and Windows. However, I will document this in case someone else is running into this issue :)

Hello, I have been having this error when installing, how should I modify it? In addition, from another way, I downloaded the windows version of the installation package, click alphastats_gui.exe can not open, is there any step I missed?

Hi @pokhf123 we have not tested support for python 3.11 yet. You need to therefore run it with python 3.10 max.

thanks!
