Answer 1

Just close whatever IDE you are using and restart the system. It worked for me!

Answer 2

Restart your IDE if that doesn't work try restarting your PC it worked for me!!

Answer 3

Doing following steps maybe solve the problem:

Step 1: Go to browser and search download libmpg123.dll.

Step 2: download libmpg123.dll and Extract it.

Step 3: After Extract (cut or copy) the two docs and paste in "C:\Windows\System32".

Step 4: Installation successfully done.

And this is also works :-

music = pygame.mixer.music.load('not.mp3')
pygame.mixer.music.play(loops=-1)

Thanks You
