Python reinstalled to C:\Program Files\Python39 (which is where I want it anyway), everything done as administrator, installed for all users, added to PATH. But same error again in installing pyinstaller. REDACTED below replaces my Windows username, which contains the character á (0xe1 in ANSI), which is being misinterpreted as being in utf8 instead of ANSI, whence error. Please ignore highlighting. There is no sitecustomize.py in my file system.
