pygame.error: File is not a Windows BMP file (continuation of the problem)

Question

I have recently started using Mac for coding. Thus, I had to move all my files from my previous computer (Windows). Long story short, everything was good until this error occurred.

pygame.error: File is not a Windows BMP file

I checked Stackoverflow and found this question with the explanation of how to resolve the problem. How to uninstall pygame on mac OSX 10.9.4

But still nothing. I use python3, however, python 2.7 was installed on my computer initially (Idk how) and I checked so that my program does not notice it. Can anyone help me, please?

did you check your PIP version if not check it and if it needs to be updated u can update

than u can reinstall PyGame library

Every PC system has Python old version. In order to use Python u have to Update your Python up 3.5 version.. than hope everything will be fine :)

I use commands "pip3 uninstall pygame" and "pip3 install pygame" to complete your second suggestion – Gevorg Nersesian Oct 19 '20 at 13:23
