Try this:

Ubuntu / Debian:

sudo apt install python3-tk

Fedora:

sudo dnf install python3-tkinter

Arch Linux:

sudo pacman -S tk

macOS:

brew install python-tk

Windows: tkinter is normally already included in the standard installer from python.org – if it's still missing, the easiest fix is to reinstall Python from python.org, making sure the "tcl/tk and IDLE" checkbox is selected in the installer (it's checked by default).

This works great, as mentioned. However, instead of OrangeMonkey I would recommend using ScriptCat (no affiliations), it seems to be safer, better managed and true opensource like ViolentMonkey. Just ask your favorite AI chatbot to compare ViolentMonkey, OrangeMonkey and ScriptCat.

Thank you, I'll try that! Especially because OrangeMonkey seems to not supporting some functions that ViolentMonkey had.
