Source code string cannot contain null bytes in python terminal, windows

Question

I just installed python in my windows 10 pc. I am getting this weird error which I have never seen before:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\program files\python\lib\runpy.py", line 197, in _run_module_as_main
    return _run_code(code, main_globals, None,

    exec(code, run_globals)

ValueError: source code string cannot contain null bytes

My first guess would be that your installation is damaged. I would uninstall and reinstall first. — Tim Roberts, Jun 03 '21 at 05:28
