Pyglet installation problems
#1
Hello

Very new to python - I have a beginners book and working through it, still on chapter 1.

I have been trying for the last hour to install pyglet on my laptop and running in to problems.

I have 3.6 python installed, and I have downloaded pyglet 1.3.0 in a zip file and unzipped it.

I have been following the install instructions using python setup.py install and various files/programmes appear to be installed BUT always, always an error occurs:

running install
error: can't create or remove files in install directory

The following error occurred while trying to add or remove files in the
installation directory:

[Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Python36-32\\Lib\\si
te-packages\\test-easy-install-6964.write-test'


The installation directory you specified (via --install-dir, --prefix, or
the distutils default setting) was:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Python36-32\Lib\site-packages\



It states I perhaps need to have administrator access (which I do).

I am just lost.

I really just need a basic step-by-step guide as to how to get use of pyglet.

Any pointers would be great, thanks.
