Solution 1:^[1]

I got the error because I have upgraded to python 3.9 and the code and packages were not working. I managed to fix the error by upgrading the packages and reinstalled. Among those upgrades cchardet was upgraded from 2.1.4 to 2.1.7 and numpy from 1.16.4 to 1.22.1.

So most likely some of these two packages did not support yet python 3.9.
