I'm pretty new to this programming and maybe need more practice but I've been having problems trying to connect to the Rinkeby testnet and can't seem to see the problem (Windows 10, Powershell) not sure if it's the .env or how I set them up but I'll send the code or the respective files created with screenshots to see I someone could illuminate the problem. Copy pasted the code and some screenshots of the environment variables. Your help is very much appreciated. For some reason the export commands in the .env are seems as they are not executing(Third attachment).

Thank you

config reads from brownie-config.yaml file which is in the root directory. make sure the location of the file is in root and its name is correct in the project.
