Error message
if you take a look at the issue it has something to do with getting the libraries from github so I thought maybe I needed to download the github application, that didnt work. Do I need to download these libraries and put them somewhere on my computer manually? Im not sure what to do.
see this thread:

Most probably you have an old “fp-lib-table” library definition file that points to non-existing libraries on github.
That file does not get updated with a new 4.0.0 or 4.0.1 install - you have to do it manually.
Many thanks! It worked perfectly!
