I have tried the following:

1. I had Python 3.9.6, and it failed. Read a similar problem where the solution was to get pythong 3.8 or older. So installed that and tried again and failed.

2. tried using: pip install --user TA-Lib.

3. made sure the PATH for Python is there when I reinstalled Python 3.8.5

4. also tried installing ta-lib through command-prompt
