Issue with brownie install

[narainp]

Installed brownie and updated env variables: python3 -m pip install --user pipx python3 -m pipx ensurepath pipx install eth-brownie were successful.

But it seems the verification fails:

Hello @narainp try installing brownie with pip instead pipx

[narainp]

Thanks. Retried by following the steps again. Both using pip and pipx, everything seems to be installed without errors. But, the test fails still...

It seems you have some conflicts with your python packages on windows, there is some steps that should help:

1. install visual studio and it's pythons development tools.
2. use python virtualenv (install it using pip), this allows you to to manage python virtual environments which independent libraries.
3. Use WSL (windows subsystem for linux) and manage all your python stuff there. (recommended)

I hope this info might be helpful.
