setup.py - SyntaxError: f-string: unmatched '[' #1

Hi there!
Python 3.11.4 - When running the Python setup.py script I got this error:

  File "C:\GitRepos\Asteroid-Mapper\setup.py", line 171
    f"{drive}\\steamapps\\common\\{manifest["AppState"]["installdir"]}"
                                             ^^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: f-string: unmatched '['

Replacing the outer double-quotes (") with the single ones (') fixed it.

And the same happened here:

  File "C:\GitRepos\Asteroid-Mapper\setup.py", line 210
    print(f"Found Space Engineers Under {locations["244850"]}")
                                                    ^^^^^^
SyntaxError: f-string: unmatched '['

After changing the outer double quotes here also to single, like print(f' instead of print(f", everything else worked fine.

I don't know much of Python, maybe it's the quotes are indeed wrong or maybe it's something with the Python version or how it's setup, but thought I'd let you know that yeah the double-quotes were not getting escaped correctly. Curiously, VS Code didn't think the syntax was wrong or anything.
