Error from running experiment

Hi! I’m a student in a research lab and I was given a PsychoPy file to run and look through for help building my own task.

However, when I run the task, I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I’m not sure what happened here. Does anyone have any ideas or how to fix it?

This happens when you try to open a 2021 project in a 2020 version of PsychoPy. Are you able to upgrade your version?
