PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:\Users\nhassen\.spyder-py3\langconfig'

This means that you don't have permissions to write on that file. I don't know how you ended up in that situation (probably because you ran Spyder as admin in your own account), but you need to restore the right permissions to avoid this error.

We'll show an error message informing users when an error occurs during this operation.
