Can you paste the exact command you ran to install piicatcher?

[suri1987]

pip install PIIcatcher

[vrajat]

The only error message I see is

 AssertionError: write_to=WindowsPath('C:/Users/S/AppData/Local/Temp/pip-install-y17nyst5/pyarrow_17895450960d42fcb0c069022d75975d/pyarrow/_generated_version.py')

This is a pyarrow installation issue on windows.
