@maxgerhardt please check whether the problem occurs with the latest version of Arduino IDE 2.x and then comment here to let me know the result.
Hi, I got the same error multiple times with IDE 1.8.19 and versions 2.6.x/2.7.0. I had to remove the board then reinstall.
I've Win 10 with Python 3.11 installed and added to PATH.
I get the same error with 3.3.0

Windows 10
Python 3.9.5 (Path variables set and runs at command line)
Arduino IDE 1.8.19

Users report that when upgrading or downgrading the Arduino-Pico core from 2.6.1 to 2.6.3 (or reverse), updating of the core would fail at the Python interpreter. This leaves the Python interpreter package folder without some crucial files without which it cannot start, and so users get a

Actual behavior
The downgrade fails with

python3.exe
cannot start anymore.Should look like
