Pext on windows can't download modules and themes from provided repos

[abhishek-mudgal]

Issue occurs due to non availability of 'SSL' module which restricts application from connecting to HTTPS.

Pext 0.22 on Windows 10 Pro

Can you please click "Show details..." and paste the text of that here? It'll tell me at exactly what line of code things went wrong.

@TheLastProject Any thoughts on where this module is supposed to come from and why it isn't being included?

(Also I did not have this issue myself.)

[TheLastProject]

I'm guessing it's in the AppVeyor build script and Conda should include it somehow.

Do you have a local Python environment? The .exe may be falling back on parts of that which would explain why it works for you.
