TypeError: 'type' object is not subscriptable

I installed as local user on Windows 10 using Python38. I tried running 'certipy -h' and this error resulted. Please advise. Full console output:

Hey!
You need to install Python 3.9.

Thanks for the feedback. I used Python 3.8 in a Linux environment and did not experience the error. However, I'm "stuck" with Python 3.8 on my work Windows 10 system until my company's software distribution team can be bothered to package an updated version. :-(

Hey!

As a workaround, you can add from __future__ import annotations at the beginning of (at least) formatting.py, ldap.py and find.py. Don't forget to python setup.py install after that.

Actually, I lied. I had installed MiniConda with Python 3.9.5. Thankfully, one does not need admin privs to do that, even in a corporate Win10 setting. As expected, there is no error with certipy in this environment. So, as far as I'm concerned, this issue can be closed. Thanks for your help.
