How can I solve this
This problem mostly occurs because of the required Python version for the package.
The required Python version for the latest gym-retro
package is 3.8/3.7/3.6
. So if your Python version is higher or lower than any of the mentioned versions, you need to uninstall and reinstall one of the following versions. It should work.
