It looks a little advanced, but could go in an admonition block titled "Advanced method for non-admin installation on Windows"

Probably either - network connectivity - the Stata HTML help page doesn't exist for the command you're looking for. Check if `https://www.stata.com/help.cgi?` exists.

Interesting. Well I haven't heard any other reports of this, and I don't have access to Stata anymore to debug.

This is an unrelated issue, because the pip you’re invoking is linked to the non-Anaconda python. Use `python -m pip` to make sure you’re using the same python executable for...

@mcaceresb I think this is probably related to the recent change here https://github.com/kylebarron/stata_kernel/commit/d436d9be8a94858ddbbb5853bfbbf0e852a41ff0#diff-989130b8db8fa5d0d5369619ecb45f2b72696aa855d481b5169c13157ab67b86R5-R8 hence the "Cannot import kernel".
