Trying to install vcd package but can’t
It seems like it tries but runs into some kind of error and so quits.

Maybe it has something to do with the “dependencies” – not sure what that means
Also think it might have something to do with Windows 10 keeping Documents folder synced with OneDrive.

Can anyone help?
