download python 3.9 from official python website

open command prompt and run the below:

python --version (confirm its 3.9, otherwise uninstall previous versions and install 3.9)

next run, one after the other

python -m venv venv

.\venv\Scripts\activate

pip install --upgrade setuptools

pip install --upgrade pip

pip install --upgrade wheel

pip install rasa (wait till its done)

(if you get execution policy error) Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass

rasa init

remember, fight it until it works , good luck
