OpenBCI Python on Windows 10?

I've been on Mac the last few years and switched over to Windows 10.
I am trying to follow this tutorial.

 @jfrey...

I downloaded the ZIP for OpenBCI_Python and got an error on line 16 when I try to import serial. It says the module is not found. The trouble I have is what to do with this set of instructions:
To use a Windows OS, change the init function in open_bci_v3.py to establish a serial connection in Windows.

What do I change the init function to say? Essentially, how do I create a serial connection so that I can actually run the open_bci_v3.py file? Also, where do I put the numpy folder so that it gets properly imported as well?

Please and thank you!

    I found the port is COM3. Do I just add that in for port=   ?

    I can verify that on my Windows system, running user.py with the parameter -p=COM13 works (my OpemBCI dongle is connected as COM13).
