I tried a number of things before I was able to make this work. The 
major problem was getting the right versions of sip, PyQt and Qt. As I 
remember it, this is the combination that worked.

 1. Set up a new Python 3.6 virtual environment named eric using
    Anaconda Navigator
 2. In Anaconda Navigator, install sip in the eric virtual enviroment.
    This should also upgrade PyQt and Qt to the latest versions.
 3. Open a Windows command prompt window and activate eric
 4. Then install eric the normal way.
 5. Once complete, you can set up a shortcut on the desktop for
    convenience. I also needed to change the configuration settings so
    that it would find the Qt tools automatically.

Depending on what you are doing, you may want to install additional 
modules in the eric environment such as pandas, numpy, etc.
