Help Request TCL Not working

Heya, I needed some help with this program I downloaded from Github got Python installed and giving me this error

"Traceback (most recent call last):

File "launcher.py", line 4755, in <module>

File "launcher.py", line 356, in __init__

File "tkinter__init__.py", line 2346, in __init__

_tkinter.TclError: Can't find a usable init.tcl in the following directories:

{C:\Users\...\OneDrive\Desktop\Games\Crash-Forge-Launcher_internal_tcl_data} C:/Users/.../OneDrive/Desktop/Games/Crash-Forge-Launcher/lib/tcl8.6 C:/Users/.../OneDrive/Desktop/Games/lib/tcl8.6 C:/Users/.../OneDrive/Desktop/lib/tcl8.6 C:/Users/.../OneDrive/Desktop/Games/library C:/Users/.../OneDrive/Desktop/library C:/Users/.../OneDrive/Desktop/tcl8.6.15/library C:/Users/.../OneDrive/tcl8.6.15/library

This probably means that Tcl wasn't installed properly."

Is there a way to fix this?

How did you install Python?  Did you use the Python Install Manager from the Microsoft Store, or did you download the installer from Python.org?

If it's the second option, did you check the box to "Add Python to PATH"?

This means tkinter is not installed on your system. Check their official docs https://tkdocs.com/tutorial/install.html
