python - Solved - Error installing Kivy on Windows: Provider: x11(['window_sdl2'] ignored) Couldn't connect to X server

Question

I'm trying to install Kivy on Windows10, 64 and I always face the same error:

$python main.py 
[INFO   ] [Logger      ] Record log in /home/kk391035/.kivy/logs/kivy_21-07-26_1.txt

[INFO   ] [Window      ] Provider: x11(['window_sdl2'] ignored)
Couldn't connect to X server

I'm currently following the kivy installation guide. I did:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools virtualenv
source kivy_venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install kivy[base] kivy_examples

I've also tried installing all the kivy dependencies:

pip install kivy[base,media,full,dev,tuio,gstreamer,angle,sdl2,glew]

I tried on a virtual environment and on my pc environment using Visual Studio Code.

I also tried to enter those commands from this video and it doesn't work:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip wheel setuptools
python -m pip install docutils pygments pypiwin32 kivy.deps.sdl2 kivy.deps.glew
python -m pip install kivy.deps.gstreamer
python -m pip install kivy.deps.angle
python -m pip install pygame
python -m pip install kivy

In my virtual environment this is my Python version:

$python --version
Python 3.8.10

In my pc those are my Python versions:

$python --version
Python 2.7.18

$python3 --version
Python 3.8.10

Can you please guys help me. I tried to look in the Internet and I found nothing to help me!

edit:

I was using Ubuntu(WSL) terminal on VSCode. When I used PowerShell to install everything it worked :)
