Re: run error Lilypond-book on Windows 10

[Archer Endrich]

Hello Aaron,

Thank you for your reply.  I've checked the version of python.exe in my 
Lilyond usr\bin and it's 3.7.4, so it is puzzling that it is flagging an 
error about something not valid prior to 2.6.  I can't think where to go 
from here.

Thanks.
Archer
P.S. I hope I've replied properly to yourself and to the user-group.
