Hi!
Did you get this error just by starting the keylogger or when you press a specific key? Did you successfullt install pynput?

Let me know.

Dear Diego,

Yes I installed pynput successfully.

When I start the keylogger it works fine because I can type and see the alphabet displayed on terminal but once I click any special key like SPACE, CAP TAB etc it quits the keylogger program and gives me the error message below

Hi!
Yeah, then it’s normal. Just continue with the lectures and that issue will be addressed later on.

Greetings!
Diego
