Thank you! Which Windows version do you use?

Did you already have a version of Orange installed previously? If so, which? Does it help if you first remove Orange and try again?

[markotoplak]

I just tried in on a Win 10 computer and I could not reproduce the bug. Could you describe your system better and previous Orange/python installations so I can try reproduce the bug?

Also, could you try if the previous version works for you? You can download it from https://download.biolab.si/download/files/Orange3-3.20.1-Miniconda-x86_64.exe

Did you have Miniconda installed before installing Orange? If so which version?
Can you please run

C:\Users\<USERNAME>\Miniconda3\Scripts\conda info

or

C:\ProgramData\Miniconda3\Scripts\conda info

(depending on where miniconda is installed) from the command prompt and post the output.

Can you also try running

<same prefix as before>\conda clean --all

and then rerun the Orange installer.

Hi, I'm getting this as well (Quasars/quasar#5).

I tried conda clean --all, with no success.

If I run C:\Users\reads\AppData\Local\Continuum\miniconda3\Scripts\conda info I get

In Quasars/quasar#5 @stuart-cls also reported getting the same error if he installed a testing package with qt-5.9.7.

[markotoplak]

@stuart-cls, can you try "conda create -n test123 python=3.6 qt"

[ales-erjavec]

Can you please test with a patched installer from gh-3843

[stuart-cls]

@ales-erjavec the patched installer works.

@markotoplak I can create that environment without issue.

[ferlocar]

I had the same issue. The patched installer fixed it for me too. Thanks!
