If you can't get it to work and can't install a later version of Python you can edit the script and delete , pathlib from the import line and also delete the last two lines in the script (that's the only place pathlib is used). All that will happen is it won't automatically delete the two file created when the keys were exported. You can delete those files manually, and they're easy to identify because they have a long UUID for a filename.

Thanks! After I enter "AB" it prompts for the algorithm and then when I enter "rsa" (whether bare or in single or double quotes) it says Traceback (most recent call last): File "keychanger.py", line 44, in <module> import hashlib, time, subprocess, uuid, pathlib ImportError: No module named pathlib

Heavily edited because I made a different python script that worked in Windows and automated most of the process. This made the bulk of my previous answer obsolete.

changed order of edit-key commands - a user ID needs to be added before "change-usage" will work.
