New AnswerI am not an expert on Windows issues as I primarily use Linux distros. So take what I suggest beyond this point with caution. Now with that said I do have a lot of troubleshooting experience, hence all the questions. And preliminary look at your issue, I would ask if you are using a MSVC compiler. There's an ongoing issue with later versions of Python and windows https://kivy.org/docs/installation/installation-windows.html
Quote from the link I posted: "For Python < 3.5 we use the MinGW compiler. However, for Python 3.5+ on Windows we currently only support the MSVC compiler because of the following Python issue 4709 about MinGW. Generally this should make no difference when using precompiled wheels."
I copy in the command prompt this commands: python -m pip install --upgrade pip wheel setuptools python -m pip install docutils pygments pypiwin32 kivy.deps.sdl2 kivy.deps.glew python -m pip install kivy.deps.gstreamer --extra-index-url https://kivy.org/downloads/packages/simple/ python -m pip install kivy after every step it give me permissionError, and tell me that access is denied.
do you mean what I use for coding in python? I write the code on sublime and run it using command prompt.
