Windows Python 3.12.x seems removed setuptools . Manually installing setuptools is now a Windows Install Pre-Requisite as well, not just for Linux Build.

py -3 -m pip install setuptools

edkrepo 3.2.2 , Python 3.12.3, setuptools==69.5.1

Seing a DeprcationWarning in edkrepo_cli.py with this configuration.

edk2-edkrepo\edkrepo_cli.py:14: DeprecationWarning: pkg_resources is deprecated as an API. See https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html
  import pkg_resources

Is it possible to remove the pkg_resources use entirely?

-import pkg_resources
+from importlib.metadata import version

-        version = pkg_resources.get_distribution("edkrepo").version
-        parser.add_argument("--version", action="version", version="%(prog)s {0}".format(version))
+        edkrepo_version = version("edkrepo")
+        parser.add_argument("--version", action="version", version="%(prog)s {0}".format(edkrepo_version))
