Snowflake connector Installation

I am trying to install Snowflake connector in Python using below command but now successful. OS is Windows 11 with admin rights

pip install snowflake-connector-python

and below is the error
note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
ERROR: Failed building wheel for snowflake-connector-python
Failed to build snowflake-connector-python
ERROR: Failed to build installable wheels for some pyproject.toml based projects (snowflake-connector-python)

… any help would be appreciated

No need to go that far back. At the package’s PyPI page we can see that it provides prebuilt wheels for Windows for Python 3.12 (but not yet for 3.13).
