Download it from https://fscrawler.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html

Prefer the latest snapshot. It's more advanced and "stable".

Please don't post images of text as they are hard to read, may not display correctly for everyone, and are not searchable.

Instead, paste the text and format it with </> icon or pairs of triple backticks (```), and check the preview window to make sure it's properly formatted before posting it. This makes it more likely that your question will receive a useful answer.

It would be great if you could update your post to solve this.

You need to use the v6 version as you are using elasticsearch 6.8.
