?
No i didnt say that. The fact that python 3.4 and below use to default install to
C:\PythonXX
was the standard. Then they had the brilliant idea (sarcasm) of defaulting python3.5 and newer to
C:\Users\<PC_NAME>\AppData\Local\Programs\PythonXX-XX
instead. And yes it is
stupid
Quote: did not see a way to change the default "stupid" path , just let it install there...
This makes it appear you couldnt figure out how to change the default path and installed it to the default path. So my answer reflected that.
It doesnt matter how many python versions, or variations you have installed. The problem lies in when you execute
pip
that it might be a different version/python variation than what you are expecting it to be. You can either A) remove the unintended one (which is what snippsat is trying to get you to do....and you should), and B) you can specifically target which python version/variation you want by executing the pip in the target python
Scripts folder (which is what i am trying to get you to do). Each python install has its own pip, and you need to make sure that you are using the one that you actually want to install it to...which you are not due to you keep trying to install it to the enthought one.
