I am trying to use a package which converts currency. From here https://pypi.org/project/currency-symbols/
C:\Users\>pip install currency-symbols
Requirement already satisfied: currency-symbols in c:\users\user\appdata\local\packages\pythonsoftwarefoundation.python.3.8_qbz5n2kfra8p0\localcache\local-packages\python38\site-packages (2.0.3)
As you can see the requirement is already satisfied.
But I was still getting the error ModuleNotFound, so I check the version of python due to lack of better ideas.
C:\Users\user>python -V
Python 3.10.1
If you see the "requirement already satisfied" message from earlier, you will see it is also mentioning python 3.8 in the path. But when i checked the version it says python 3.10. What does that mean? Has it been incorrectly installed?
>Solution :
You most likely have both 3.8 and 3.10 installed and at least pip from 3.8 is in the PATH before 3.10. You could:
- Remove 3.8 paths from the PATH, there’s probably at least 2 entries referring to 3.8 paths, base python with python.exe and Scripts folder ..
- Invoke pip with absolute path to the correct python version.
- Run pip via python.exe itself as with absolute path so that PATH resolving doesnt kick in. Something like:
C:\Python310\python -mpip install currency-symbols - Or just uninstall the python you dont need anymore.
