I activated older python environment py3.8 and py 3.6 but that also failed to install pyfolio.

I modified versioneer.py file in downloaded zip file pyfolio 0.9.2.tar by replacing 'SafeConfigParser' with 'ConfigParser' using text editor 'Notebook' application on Windows 10. But that attempt also failed to install pyfolio.

I also used the command 'conda install -c conda-forge pyfolio' at administrator command prompt. But that also failed to install 'Pyfolio'.

The stable release of pyfolio i.e. 0.9.2 is compatible with Python 2.7, 3.4 and 3.5. It hasn't been maintained since 2019.

I would suggest using pyfolio-reloaded which is actively maintained and supports Python 3.9 - 3.12.
