The Windows filesystem is case-insensitive so crypto and Crypto are effectively considered the same thing. When you subsequently install pycryptodome, pip finds that a directory named with the target namespace already exists , follow these;

pip uninstall crypto

Go to this path and delete the crypto folder;

/path/to/python/Lib/site-packages/

Uninstall pycryptodome if it exists, and install again;

pip uninstall pycryptodome
pip install pycryptodome

Check this path again after installation, rename Folder "crypto" to "Crypto";

/path/to/python/Lib/site-packages/
