  Hi Eric, 
to provide a more detailed description of the problem
I can
add that in the Log here is the error but the module
is installed as can
be noted from the screenshot.

Thanks.

Thanks for all the info! It seems like the original installation of pyKVFinder may have worked despite throwing either PermissionError or RuntimeError. I will have to investigate that further.
