I will need a bit more information from you, as the addon starts fine with Blender 2.83.2 for me!

Please can you:

• start Blender
• open the console (Window > Toggle System Console)
• enable the addon to cause the error Then
• provide me all the output from the console
• provide me your system info (Help > Save System Info)

Thanks

will do

Sorry for the long delay, I can't reproduce this problem I'm afraid. I've put some code into the next release which should skip this part of the addon startup if it fails. So that might fix your issue.

The only recommendation I might have is to not install addons directly into your C:/Program Files/Blender ... folder, but to install them into the user profile folder. https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/advanced/blender_directory_layout.html
