Error during installation of Robot Framework and RIDE

Question

I need to install Python 3.8.10 , Robot Framework 3.1.2, RIDE v2.0b1.

Getting an error (below). Could anyone help me with the installation?

The error is coming from a C++ library in wxWidgets that wxPython uses. It would be nice to know what version of wxPython you have installed. However, the version of RIDE, v2.0b1 is somewhat old, and you can now try the newest, v2.0b2, by using the command:

pip install -U --pre robotframework-ride
