I'm running python 3.6.1... is there any way to use btcrecover??

btcrecover requires a version of Python 2.7.x, it will not run with Python 3. It's hard for me to imagine an operating system which only has Python 3 available for it, and no Python 2... which OS are you running?

I’m running the latest macOS but I upgraded to python3 for a learning course and don’t know enough to go backwards. I have another machine I could run it on so I might just do that. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Give this a try in a terminal window:

python2.7 -V

(that's a capital V)

Assuming this responds with a version of Python 2.7.x, you can use python2.7 wherever the Tutorial calls for python.
