How do I solve error “dotenv installation error” on pycharm

I am trying to install dotenv package on pycharm edu,but keep getting error that reads “AttributeError: module ‘importlib._bootstrap’ has no attribute ‘SourceFileLoader’ “

I tried to solve this using the python terminal by running command “pip install –user dotenv” as root user but still got the same error

command output reads as follows
