Updated to V8.0.6, KiKit Numpy install error

External Plugins
1

At the KiCad 8.0 Command Prompt , I get the following message;

'\\ad.monash.edu\home\User083\ninob\Documents\KiCad\8.0'
CMD does not support UNC paths as current directories.

Installing or updating KiKit with;

C:\Program Files\KiCad\8.0>pip install kikit

It completes with the following error;

Using cached numpy-1.26.4-cp311-cp311-win_amd64.whl (15.8 MB)
Installing collected packages: numpy
ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '\\\\ad.monash.edu\\home\\User083\\ninob\\Documents\\KiCad\\8.0\\3rdparty\\Python311\\site-packages\\numpy\\core\\include\\numpy\\npy_interrupt.h'
Check the permissions.

I have searched the forum but can’t find any obvious solutions.

Thanks in advance.
