Today I installed miniconda3 on my Windows 10 machine using the installation executable from the Anaconda download page. Following [Getting Started – Conda build](https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda-build/en/stable/user-guide/getting-started.html#prereqs), I ran `conda install -n base conda-build` (I already have git installed on my machine). Following the example on [building conda packages](https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda-build/en/stable/user-guide/tutorials/build-pkgs-skeleton.html), I ran `conda skeleton pypi click`. This failed with the error

> FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ‘C:\Users\\<my\_username\>\AppData\Local\Temp\tmpmqhtvkrrconda\_skeleton\_click-8.1.8.tar.gz\click-8.1.8\setup.py’

If anyone could shed some light on this, I’d appreciate it!
