SystemError: PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN macro must be defined for '#' formats

I have tried using both the one click and by setting up a venv manually. But no matter what python version I use I end up with this same error.

SystemError: PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN macro must be defined for '#' formats

Some assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Begin by reproducing the reported error with both the one-click setup and the manually created venv, testing the Python versions mentioned in the report. No source file or test is identified, so trace the failing startup path and document the specific environment or dependency condition that produces the error; done means an actionable diagnosis or verified fix.
