"make latexpdf" doesn't work either ("the package latexmk could not be installed"). I attach the logfile
latexmk.log.txt (408bytes)

From what I see in the attached log file, you have not been able to connect to the server (it seems that it has not responded and it sends you a 404 error)
Try again later and hopefully the server where the package to download is working.

The preferred way would be to "cd" into the directory with the manual source code, so that you don't have to move those files around. But yes, that works too, particularly if you're not concerned with making changes.

When I'm working on the manual, I make a PDF as the final step to check everything is OK. But while I am making changes to the RST files, I check the edits using the Visual Studio Code editor. It's possible to render an HTML page just for the current RST file with a single keystroke and the page pops up in another tab in the editor.
Saves me a whole lot of time, so let me know if you would like instructions.

I've just installed it on my new Win 10 desktop.
There's a list of what I did, though I don't think anything was specific to Win 10.
