Thank you, Dr. Christopher Gohlke
I downloaded and installed Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for
Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019. This solved the problem. Now, PyMOL is
running without any problem. In fact, I just successfully ran PyMOL from
Portable Python 3.8 and also from IDLE.
Cheers

With Warm Regards
