2. If you installed Python 3 but it doesn't work on command line, maybe you haven't used an official installer, as that usually shouldn't be an issue, or if you did use an official installer, you may not have marked the checkbox that makes it change PATH environment variables for you automatically, in which case adding the location of the Python 3 (and potentially pip) executables should fix it.

3. <code>rtmidi</code> seems to install but there's issues when trying to use it; installing <code>python-rtmidi</code> may help in such a case. That's why I have "pip install mido && pip install python-rtmidi" ~~witha~~ note about the loopMIDI requirement on Windows as the default/simplest installation recommendation present at the beginning of the code where I <code>import mido</code>.

4. If you are getting a long error where towards the end there is <code>error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 or greater is required.</code> (which might happen if you are using an older version of Windows) then try <code>pip install --only-binary :all: rtmidi</code> which will save you a huge amount of trouble if it works. Versions apparently should be available for almost every relevant version of Python 3, so if it isn't, try a different version of Python 3 if you know how. If your system doesn't use Python 3 and you installed it, it should definitely be safe to uninstall the current version.
