I am using Visual Code 1.47.0 on Windows 8.1 with the latest version of the Python extension installed too. I just installed a module using pip. I then created a new Python file to test it. The IDE highlights the import statement as an error and the drop-down info box says "Unable to import 'extpylib'. If I try to run/debug the test file, I get a traceback error saying:
C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\Scripts
Exception has occurred: ModuleNotFoundError
No module named 'extpylib'
File "C:\Users\user\Documents\PythonProjects\test-extpylib.py", line 2, in <module>
import extpylib
If I run the pip install command again, even with the "--upgrade" command line argument, it says everything is installed and that I'm using the latest build. I am wondering if this is happening because the VSCODE Terminal window is still using Python 2.7, and not the version I have selected in the status bar, which is Python 3.8.3 64-bit? I am not using the Code Runner extension.
I assumeg that this mismatch of versions between the IDE and the VSCODE Terminal window is causing my issue? If so, how can I get the VSCODE Terminal window to use the same version as that which is selected in the IDE? If not, what is the real problem and how can I fix it?
You may have many python paths and VS code is using the wrong one. Choose the right interpreter path just clicking here:
I solved this by closing and re-opening the vs-code after installing new package.
It seems like an environment issue. In my own Visual Studio code integrated terminal, when I type which python and which pip, I get the correct path to both python and pip executables. So this:
I am wondering if this is happening because the VSCODE Terminal window is still using Python 2.7, and not the version I have selected in the status bar, which is Python 3.8.3 64-bit?
Definitely seems to be the issue.
If your VSCODE terminal still uses Python 2.7, you could follow the tips presented here:
However, launching VS Code from a shell in which a certain Python environment is activated does not automatically activate that environment in the default Integrated Terminal. Use the Terminal: Create New Integrated Terminal command after VS Code is running.
and
Note: conda environments cannot be automatically activated in the integrated terminal if PowerShell is set as the integrated shell. See Integrated terminal - Configuration for how to change the shell.
and
Changing interpreters with the Python: Select Interpreter command doesn't affect terminal panels that are already open.
Of course, the package you installed in an environment is independent of other environments.
As you said the VSCode Terminal using Python2.7 while the status bar shows the selected interpreter is Python3.8.3 64-bit. This meaning you are using the global python(3.8.3) to run the python file while you install the package to the Python(2.7) environment.
Solution:
After you selected the python interpreter in the status bar, you need to activate the environment in Terminal through shortcut 'Ctrl+Shift+`'. You can through these commands to check which environment you are using:
In the terminal:
By command "pip --version" to check which pip you are using.
By command "python" -> "import sys; sys.executable" to check which python you are using.
By command "python" -> "import sys; sys.path" to check which 'site-package' the interpreter searching for.
pip command that was used to install the package is based on a different version of python versus what VS Code is using.
Check the python version of your pip command, run pip --version. For example, on my system, this is the output of this command.
$ pip --version
pip 22.0.4 from /Library/Python/3.8/site-packages/pip (python 3.8)
Check the version of code that VS code is using. For VS code 1.61, the python version will be visible at the bottom left corner while a python file is open in the editor. Screen shot of the same is given below. You can also observe from the screen shot that lazy_streams package is not being recognised by VS code.
To solve the error in VS code, update the python version in VScode to be same as that of pip. Updating of the version can be done by simply clicking on the Python version displayed, which will further prompt you to select among all available python versions on your system.
I am using Python 3.5.2 version on Windows 7 and tried using python3 app.py. I am getting this error message:
'python3' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Is there any specific cause about why the python3 command is not working?
I also verified that the PATH is added to environment variables.
There is no python3.exe file, that is why it fails.
Try:
py
instead.
py is just a launcher for python.exe. If you have more than one python versions installed on your machine (2.x, 3.x) you can specify what version of python to launch by
py -2 or
py -3
You can also try this:
Go to the path where Python is installed in your system. For me it was something like C:\Users\\Local Settings\Application Data\Programs\Python\Python37
In this folder, you'll find a python executable. Just create a duplicate and rename it to python3. Works every time.
Python3.exe is not defined in windows
Specify the path for required version of python when you need to used it by creating virtual environment for your project
Python 3
virtualenv --python=C:\PATH_TO_PYTHON\python.exe environment
Python2
virtualenv --python=C:\PATH_TO_PYTHON\python.exe environment
then activate the environment using
.\environment\Scripts\activate.ps1
Yes, I think for Windows users you need to change all the python3 calls to python to solve your original error. This change will run the Python version set in your current environment. If you need to keep this call as it is (aka python3) because you are working in cross-platform or for any other reason, then a work around is to create a soft link. To create it, go to the folder that contains the Python executable and create the link. For example, this worked in my case in Windows 10 using mklink:
cd C:\Python3
mklink python3.exe python.exe
Use a (soft) symbolic link in Linux:
cd /usr/bin/python3
ln -s python.exe python3.exe
In my case I have a git hook on commit, specified by admin. So it was not very convenient for me to change the script (with python3 calls).
And the simplest workaround was just to copy python.exe to python3.exe.
Now I could launch both python and python3.
If python2 is not installed on your computer, you can try with just python instead of python3
For Python 27
virtualenv -p C:\Python27\python.exe django_concurrent_env
For Pyton36
virtualenv -p C:\Python36\python.exe django_concurrent_env
Enter the command to start up the server in that directory:
py -3.7 -m http.server
I had a related issue after installing windows 11, where python3 in cmd would open the windows store. I was able to sort it out between this post and this other one. In short, I reinstalled python and made sure to add it to PATH. Then, in settings, Apps > Apps & Features > App Execution aliases. Here, all I had to do was make sure that every single python .exe (including idle and pip) were turned off EXCEPT FOR the python3.exe alias. Now it works like a charm.
FWIW:
The root of this issue is not with you or with python. Apparently, Microsoft wanted to make installing python easier for young kiddos getting interested in coding, so they automatically add an executable to PATH. For those of us that already have this executable, it can cause these issues.
Found out instead press the play button the top right and it should work in visual studios:
Do not disable according to first answer
Saying python3 in the command will not work by default.
After figuring out the problem with the modules (Solution): https://youtu.be/paRXeLurjE4
Summary:
To import python modules in case of problem to import modules:
Hover over python in search:
Click open in folder
Hover over and right click
click properties
copy everything in path before \python.exe
close those windows
For cmd (administrator):
cd --path that was copied--
then python -m pip install --upgrade pip
cd Scripts
pip install "Name of Package" such as pip install --module (package) --
Im on win10 and have 3.7, 3.8 and 3.10 installed.
For me "python" launches version 3.10 and does not accept commands (like -3.7), "py" launches newest version but does accept commands, and "python3" does nothing.
Uninstalled 3.10 and "python" now does nothing, and "py" launches 3.8.
I am unable to add a comment, but the mlink option presented in this answer above https://stackoverflow.com/a/55229666/8441472 by #Stanislav preserves cross-platform shebangs at the top of scripts (#!/usr/bin/env python3) and launches the right python.
(Even if you install python from python.org, Windows will direct you to the app marketplace nowadays if you type python3 on the command line. If you type python on the same cli it will launch the python.org version repl. It leads to scripts that generate no output, but more likely silently failed completely. I don't know ho common this is but have experienced it on a couple of different devices)
If you have this at the top of your script to ensure you launch python3 and don't feel like editing everything you own, it is not a bad approach at all... lol.
I have installed Jupyter on Windows 10, Python 3.x via
$ pip install jupyter
The installation works fine, even though I did restart the terminal.
But trying to run
$ jupyter notebook
gives the following error
'jupyter' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
How and where do I find the executable for Jupyter?
If you are absolutely sure that your Python library path is in your system variables (and you can find that path when you pip install Jupyter, you just have to read a bit) and you still experience "command not found or recognized" errors in Windows, you can try:
python -m notebook
For my Windows at least (Windows 10 Pro), having the python -m is the only way I can run my Python packages from command line without running into some sort of error
Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process using ' "
or
Errno 'THIS_PROGRAM' not found
Please try either of these commands first;
$ py -m notebook
$ python -m notebook
for jupyterlab users
py -m jupyterlab
Otherwise
$ python -m pip install jupyter --user
$ jupyter notebook
If this does not work.
pip does not add jupyter directly to path for local.
The output from
$ which python
/c/Users/<username>/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python35-32/python
After some digging I found a executable for jupyter in the folder:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python35\Scripts\jupyter.exe
Difference between local and roaming folder
So if you want to be able to execute a program via command line, you need to add it into the %PATH variable. Here is a powershell script to do it. BE SURE TO ADD THE ";" before adding the new path.
$ [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("Path", $env:Path + ";C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python35\Scripts", [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::User)
Update:
if you are using python3, switch out python with python3
but I encourage you to use pyenv instead :)
I had the exact same problem and it was driving me crazy. Other answers provide a solution, but they don't explain why you and I are having this problem.
I will try to explain why this is happening and then provide some solutions.
You can go to the end to see the TL;DR.
1)What's going on? Why is this error happening?
I'll try to make a step-by-step answer so everything is explained clearly.
If you think it's too basic at the beginning, go to the end of this "article".
I'll first start with common things like running the python shell from the terminal or running pip. You'll see why you can do that from the terminal and we'll end up on why and how you can run the jupyter notebook from the terminal as well.
Ready? Let's start!
Have you ever wondered why you can type python in the terminal (command prompt) and suddenly start the Python interpreter?

You probably already know (but maybe don't) that this is because Python was added to the Windows PATH environment variable. You probably did it at installation time or afterwards.
But, what is this PATH environment variable?
It basically allows you to run any executables, that are located inside
the paths specified in the variable, at the command prompt without
having to give the full path to the executable.
You can check the content of that PATH variable with:
>>> import sys
>>> for path in sys.path:
print(path)
C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\python39.zip
C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\DLLs
C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib
C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39
C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages
... (some other paths were taken out for clarity)
You can see this folder: C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39. This is the place where Python version 3.9 is installed. Let's check its content:
<DIR> DLLs
<DIR> Doc
<DIR> etc
<DIR> include
<DIR> Lib
<DIR> libs
<DIR> Scripts
<DIR> share
<DIR> tcl
<DIR> Tools
LICENSE.txt
NEWS.txt
python.exe
python3.dll
python39.dll
pythonw.exe
vcruntime140.dll
vcruntime140_1.dll
Voilà! We have the python.exe file (an executable). We have a Python executable file in the PATH, that's why you can start the Python interpreter from the terminal with just typing python. If this wasn't the case you would have to type the full path to the executable file in the terminal:
C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME> C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\python)
Instead of just:
C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME> python
And what about when you use pip?
It's the same principle. You can run pip from the terminal because there is a pip executable file in the PATH variable.
If you go to C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Scripts\ (which is in the PATH showed above) you'll see many executables files. One of them is pip. Actually I have three versions: pip, pip3.9 and pip3.
The Scripts folder allows exectuable files to be run from the terminal. Like pip or other libraries that you intend to run directly from the terminal. The Scripts folder:
...is not intended for you, it's for scripts that are installed as
components of modules that you install. For example, pip is a module,
but it also has a wrapper script by the same name, pip, which will be
installed in that directory.
If you put something there and it is properly in your PATH, then it
should be executable
That wrapper script would be the pip executable file. When this executable file is run, it locates the pip folder in the Python installation folder and runs pip.
But you could also run pip directly from the installation folder (C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Lib\site-packages), without needing the executable pip file.
But, how can you do it?
I'm glad you ask. There is a Python way to run modules as the main module (without the need to import it).
python -m pip
When you run a module directly its name becomes __main__. What -m does is:
Search sys.path for the named module and execute its contents as the __main__ module.
What is __main__?
'__main__' is the name of the scope in which top-level code executes.
A module’s __name__ is set equal to '__main__' when read from standard
input, a script, or from an interactive prompt.
...
I guess that the pip executable does something similar, or at least, has the same effect: to start pip.
2)What does this have to do with the Jupyter Notebook?!
Think of the Jupyter Notebook as the same as pip. If you want to run jupyter in the terminal, you need an executable that it's on the PATH.
We have already seen that the executables of modules like pip or jupyter are located here C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Scripts\.
If I check the content of the folder I see this:
easy_install-3.9.exe
easy_install.exe
f2py.exe
jsonschema.exe
jupyter-bundlerextension.exe
jupyter-console.exe
jupyter-nbconvert.exe
jupyter-nbextension.exe
jupyter-notebook.exe
jupyter-qtconsole.exe
jupyter-serverextension.exe
jupyter-trust.exe
pip.exe
pip3.9.exe
pip3.exe
I see the already mentioned pip, pip3.9 and pip3. But I don't see jupyter (the word "jupyter" alone).
If I type jupyter in the terminal I get the error that started all:
'jupyter' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Finally we've reached an answer to your question!!!
'jupyter' is not recognized as a command because there is no executable file in the Scripts folder called jupyter.
So, let's try a different executable. What about jupyter-notebook?
BINGO! The notebook is running!
Serving notebooks from local directory:
C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Scripts
Jupyter Notebook 6.3.0 is running at:
http://localhost:8888/?token=... (edited)
or http://127.0.0.1:8888/?token=... (edited)
Use Control-C to stop this server and shut down all kernels (twice to skip confirmation).
I don't know why I don't have a jupyter executable called 'jupyter'. The official documentation says to use jupyter notebook on the terminal, but it seems that in some cases it doesn't work. And I think it has to do with what I mentioned above: there is no jupyter exectuable in the Scripts folder.
If you remember, I told you that you can run pip as the main module using python -m pip.
It happens that you can do the same with jupyter.We just need to know how to call it. As in with pip, we have to check the folder where 3rd party libraries are installed: C:\Users\YOUR-USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Lib\site-packages.
You'll see jupyter_console, but this just creates an interactive notebook in the terminal, not exactly what you were looking for. You're also going to find folders ending with .dist.info, like jupyter_console-6.4.0.dist-info. This is just metadata of the Wheel Binary Package builder. You'll also see a folder like jupyterlab_pygments, but that's for JupyterLab. We want to use the classic Jupyter notebook.
What we want is to run notebook. How do we know this?
You'll see in the folder site-packages the folder (package) notebook. Inside there is a file called __main__.py:
#__main__.py
if __name__ == '__main__':
from notebook import notebookapp as app
app.launch_new_instance()
It's calling notebookapp.py which is a "A tornado based Jupyter notebook server." Yes, this is what we need.
We can see that launch_new_instance in the notebookapp calls launch_instance(), which "launches an instance of a Jupyter Application".
Perfect! We are in the correct folder. To run the jupyter notebook from the Python interactive shell we have to run the notebook package with:
python -m notebook
3)*** SUMMARY: SOLUTION ***
tl;dr:
I have explained and showed why this error is happening.
Now let's summarize the solutions:
To know the name of the jupyter executable (in the Scripts folder), so you can run directly from the terminal (Command Prompt) as:
jupyter notebook
or as:
jupyter-notebook
Or whatever name you have.
Run the notebook as the main module from Python:
python -m notebook
I hope this helps you as much as it helped me. I'm open to your comments and suggestions.
I had the same problem, but
py -m notebook
worked for me.
I got Jupyter notebook running in Windows 10. I found the easiest way to accomplish this task without relying upon a distro like Anaconda was to use Cygwin.
In Cygwin install python2, python2-devel, python2-numpy, python2-pip, tcl, tcl-devel, (I have included a image below of all packages I installed) and any other python packages you want that are available. This is by far the easiest option.
Then run this command to just install jupyter notebook:
python -m pip install jupyter
Below is the actual commands I ran to add more libraries just in case others need this list too:
python -m pip install scipy
python -m pip install scikit-learn
python -m pip install sklearn
python -m pip install pandas
python -m pip install matplotlib
python -m pip install jupyter
If any of the above commands fail do not worry the solution is pretty simple most of the time. What you do is look at the build failure for whatever missing package / library.
Say it is showing a missing pyzmq then close Cygwin, re-open the installer, get to the package list screen, show "full" for all, then search for the name like zmq and install those libraries and re-try the above commands.
Using this approach it was fairly simple to eventually work through all the missing dependencies successfully.
Cygwin package list
Once everything is installed then run in Cygwin goto the folder you want to be the "root" for the notebook ui tree and type:
jupyter notebook
This will start up the notebook and show some output like below:
$ jupyter notebook

In Python 3.7.6 for Windows 10. After installation, I use these commands.
1. pip install notebook
2. python -m notebook
OR
C:\Users\Hamza\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.7_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python37\Scripts
.
For my pc python-scripts are located in the above path. You can add this path in environment variables. Then run command.
1. jupyter notebook
You can add the following to your path
C:\[Python Installation path]\Scripts
e.g. C:\Python27\Scripts
It will start working for jupyter and every other pip install you will do here on.
Check whether you have given python PATH in environmental variables properly.
If not, then set python path. Then use:
$ python -m notebook
If you are using the Anaconda distribution, make sure when installing it that you check the "Change PATH" option.
first you should make sure that you are put your python path in your system variables ..
Then try run this
python -m pip install jupyter --user
and then
run this
py -m notebook or jupyter notebook
In Windows 10 you can use ipython notebook. It works for me.
I added
c:\users\[user]\appdata\roaming\python\python37\site-packages
to the path and it worked.
## windows CMD
for default install (just check "add path" and "next" when installing)
python -m notebook
for custom install in C:\
jupyter notebook
Problem for me was that I was running the jupyter command from the wrong directory.
Once I navigated to the path containing the script, everything worked.
Path-
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Shared\Python37_64\Scripts
I have two python version installed:
1. Python 3.8.2: This was installed independently
2. Python 3.7.6: This was installed along with Anaconda 3
Multiple versions caused conflict even after setting the path variables correctly.
I have uninstalled the Python 3.8.2 and after restart, the command
jupyter notebook
Worked perfectly :)
you can create a batch file and search for Jupiter in your windows search and ooen its properties and you will get this string.
D:\anaconda3\python.exe D:\anaconda3\cwp.py D:\anaconda3 D:\anaconda3\python.exe D:\anaconda3\Scripts\jupyter-notebook-script.py "%USERPROFILE%/"
after getting this you can create a jupitor.bat file with this content it that
and you can save that file in a script folder in d or any drive and add the path of your script file in your environmental path
and then you can easly call this by typing jupitor in cmd.
To install I used
"pip install notebook" in windows command line
To run python -m notebook did not work for me, but python3 -m notebook worked
First run this command
pip install jupyter
then add system variable path , this path is where jupyter and other scripts are located
PATH = C:\Users<userName>\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\Scripts
e.g PATH=C:\Users\HP\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\Scripts
After that we can run jupyter from any folder/directory
jupyter notebook
I just found that error when I first intalled and run the jupyter notebook. Then I found the executable (.exe) file from
C:\Users\<user-name>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Scripts.
The actual file name was "jupyter-notebook".
The installation guide says it as "jupyter notebook" to run the server. You have to run the command "jupyter-notebook" in the command line and it will be run. Thanks!
My problem was my user's folder had a space in folder name.
After creating a new user and switching to that windows user, windows shortcuts and links from within' Anaconda worked fine.
Windows 8.1 64 Bit. Latest Anaconda.
Note: I ended up uninstalling an reinstalling Anaconda but my sense is the problem was really just the space in the windows user username/user folder.
Using python 3.6.3. Here after installing Jupyter through command 'python -m pip install jupyter', 'jupyter notebook' command didn't work for me using windows command prompt.
But, finally 'python -m notebook' did work and made jupyter notebook to run on local.
http://localhost:8888/tree
Here is how I resolved stated issue, hope it helps:
install python 3.7 using official website for python, while installing include installing PATH by checking it's box
after that open cmd (be sure to open it after step 1) and write: pip install jupyter ENTER
now you should be able to open jupyter notebook by using command: jupyter notebook
Seems simple, but it may as well help.
In windows 10:
If you used anaconda3 for Jupyter notebook installation and forgot to check the box to add the environment variables to the system during installation, you need to add the following environment variables to the "Path" variable manually:
(search windows settings for Edit environment variables")
Environment variables for Anaconda3
If you have installed jupyter with
"python -m pip install jupyter" command
instead of
"$ pip install jupyter" command
then follow these steps:
Create a notepad
Change its extension from ".txt" to ".ipynb"
Right click it and click "open with"
In the pop up, go to - C:\Users\<"windows_user_name">\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\Scripts
Click on "jupyter-lab.exe"
100% working solution:
Follow these steps:
Open the folder where you downloaded "python-3.8.2-amd64.exe" setup or any other version of python package
Double click on "python-3.8.2-amd64.exe'
Click "Modify"
You will see "Optional features"
Click "next"
Select "Add python to environment variables"
Click "install"
Then u can run jupyter in any desired folder u desire
E.g open "cmd" command prompt
Type :
E:
E:\>jupyter notebook
It will get started without showing
'Jupyter' is not recognized
Thanks
I was facing the same issue in windows7, as i just recoverd my computer with the help of recovery point and after that notebook just stopped working. I tried to change the path setting but nothing was working so I just simply uninstalled the python with the application from which it was installed and after that I installed it again. After that I installed jupyter notebook again and then it worked fine.
Thanks
I just installed JupyterLab on top of my Python 3.8/pip enabled Win10 machine, so I ran into these startup problem with windows.
If everything is ok (check that you have PATH for Python, eg. C:\Users[Username]\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32\Scripts) you simply run:
jupyter-lab.exe
and that's it.
Cheers
Add system variable path, this path is where jupyter and other scripts are located
PATH -->
`C:\Users\<userName>\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\Scripts`
Like in my laptop PATH is:
"C:\Users\developer\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\Scripts"
After that, You will be able to run jupyter from any folder & any directory by running the below command
jupyter notebook
Had the same issue. Finally searched where jupyter.exe directory was located on my computer. For some reason it was under
C:\VTRoot\HarddiskVolume4\Users[user]\AppData\Local\Programs\Python
Whereas the Python is
C:\Users[user]\AppData\Local\Programs\Python
So I copied full Python39 folder from VTRoot to main Python39 python folder in AppData. And the issue is solved.
First check where your python is installed by heading over to
C:\Users\**username**\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Scripts
this is the path usually you will find python installed. After this type in
cd.. to get one step out of the Scripts folder
After this install jupyter in here using:
$ pip install jupyter
The installation was fine and when I tried to open the jupyter notebook, it gave me the following error.
'jupiter is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I checked a lot of resources but still, I faced the same problem. After doing a lot of stuff from the internet, I myself figured out that maybe due to some updates(for some users) it won't open by typing the command
jupyter notebook
Instead, you have to type
jupyter-notebook
The only thing I was missing was this Hyphen-minus. Hope this works for you too.
