When I am trying to install the Tkinter-Designer with the command pip install tkdesigner --verbose
I am getting the below error:

I tried with the flag --verbose but the same error was seen and I couldn't find anything new.

I have Windows 11 23H2 and have the latest version of pip and python as 24.3.1 and 3.13 respectively.

It should have installed properly as it works for other people. (maybe i dunno)

The error can be reproduced by trying to install the package again.
