Encountering error when running dbt commands

Help

The problem I’m having

a colleague of mine trying to set up dbt core environment. She ran into error when she’s trying to run dbt --version or dbt deps under the dbt working directory. She has python, dbt core, dbt snowflake installed, dbt virtual environment activate. She has anaconda installed previously. will it be the issue?

The context of why I’m trying to do this

Here’s the steps she was following

Create a new DBT virtual environment https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/core/pip-install​

c:\User\yourname\dbt_workspace>python -m venv dbt-env          ​

Activate that same virtual environment each time you create a shell window or session​

    

c:\User\yourname\dbt_workspace>dbt-env\Scripts\activate            # activate the environment for Windows​

​

Install DBT adapters https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/core/pip-install​

c:\User\yourname\dbt_workspace>python -m pip install dbt-core dbt-snowflake​

​

Check DBT core and adapters version (close vscode window and reopen if you encounter dbt running fail issue)​

c:\User\yourname\dbt_workspace>dbt –-version​

What I’ve already tried

She has uninstalled python, dbt core, dbt snowflake. Updated anaconda. Then reinstall everything
