I had the same issue today, but i was able to fix it. I use windows 10 too. Kindly follow this guide to setup your virtualenv: Step One: This is really important to do because i really don't know what is the major cause of this errors but what i discovered in my time is the installation right from the start of python itself needs to be properly done. So do this uninstall everything that has to do with python, anaconda, any python version you have, pycharm and all the likes, also go to your path variable and remove any path that show python. Step Two: Goto https://www.python.org/downloads/ and download V3.7.2 the latest version currently on python official website Step 3: After download, launch the installer ensure you select Add Python 3.6 to PATH, secondly choose customize ensure all is selected hit next Step 4: Ensure you select the following * Install for all users * Add Python to environment variables * Create shortcuts for installed applications * Recompile standard library or whatever this one is Then hit install Step 5: once installation is completed, launch your powershell or cmd as admin and type python -V and hit enter. It should output Python 3.7.2 Step 6: Ensure your powershell is run as admin then run this command Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted, follow the instructions and select choose Y to update your powershell Step 7: Follow this code: cd ~/ mkdir Env pip install virtualenv pip freeze (to verify -- output will be virtualenv==version number) cd ~/Env mkdir environment cd environment virtualenv . cd ~\Env\environment .\Scripts\activate Gotten here nice work! just try pip freeze (would not returning anything at this point, this confirm your virtualevn is working fine.)
