This is the command line that I used to install

'(venv) C:\Windows\System32>pip install pyqt6'

Collecting pyqt6

How to solve this problem?

Please do not use all capitals, it is the internet equivalent of shouting, which is rude to do to people you want help from. – Mark Rotteveel Feb 01 '22 at 08:54
Windows 7 has left all kinds of (public available) security support two years ago. Are you sure you still want to use that? – Nico Haase Feb 01 '22 at 08:56
