Error Exercise 5 OnSSET Teaching Kit

I get the following error when running the plugin using data from Exercise 5 of the OnSSET Teaching Kit.

An error has occurred while executing Python code: 


_core.QgsProcessingException: Unable to execute algorithm Could not load source layer for INPUT: /filepath/Assist2\Substationdist.shp not found

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi @dianajjaramillo may I redirect you to this repo that is maintained regularly. Also, note that the plugin is compatible only with Qgis 3.10.X (3.10.7 is recommended) as indicated in the exersice. So please install the proper Qgis version and re-install the plugin from the repo linked above (same process). That should solve the issue. I hope this helps.
