importError: no module named _winreg python3 - python

Where can I download _winreg for python3 if I can at all. I have my 'windir' on E:\Windows. I do not know if cx_Freeze did not notice that. I am using cx_Freeze to create an msi installer.

As it says in the _winreg documentation, it has been renamed to winreg in Python 3.0. You should run the 2to3 tool if you're converting code that was written for Python 2.x.

I know this is an old question, but this was the first search result when Googling for ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_winreg', and perhaps may be helpful for someone.
I got the same error when trying to use a virtual environment folder, which has been created using different (already deleted) python binaries. The solution was recreate the virtual environment:
Delete the virtual environment folder
Run python -m venv <name_of_virtual_environment>

I have found an easy solution for this, Even though i found it after a lot of Rnd, the solution implementation is so simple and straight forward. Hope it can help many people with the same problem.
If you dont have the latest version of Python installed on your machine, You need to download it from (https://www.python.org/downloads/) and then click on Add to path option and just finish the installer.
Please open CMD and move to the python latest version directory, then run the pip install package name (e.g) pip install pygame and it will be successful
1. C:\WINDOWS\system32>cd C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32
2. C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32>pip install Pygame
It will install the packages now without any issues.
Downloading
Successfully installed Pygame-1.9.4
C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32>
If you are still facing issues in Pycharm after trying the above solution, please try the following steps too.
Create new virtual Environment from settings menu and select the latest version of python framework as Project Interpreter and give a new folder path.
select the pip package you want to import. Recompile the code and the error will clear.
Hope this helps.

When you encounter an error like module of simpleai not found,
use
pip install simpleai
in the prompt and then execute. It will get installed.

No module named 'odf' due to wrong Python version

I have many different versions of Python, but a version that I use and that terminal show me if use command Python – version is 3.10.0.
When I use command pip list I got a big list of library, including the one I recently installed odfpy.
I open VsCode, choose Python version 3.10.0 and try to import odf but...
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'odf'
For sure I need to set something on VsCode or change some configuration in Linux but I cannot find a normal explanation of how to solve this issue.
If I change the Python version in VsCode with 3.8.10, odfpy (and also Django just installed) is recognized. So I suppose that, even if the Python version selected on the terminal is 3.10.0, when I pip install something, is installed on version 3.8.10. How do you manage this?
Please check which pip you are using through the command of pip --version.
After you switch the python interpreter in the VSCode, please create a new terminal, and make sure it has activated the environment you have selected.
I also use VS code and use Python 3.10 and i had try to download the odfpy which has gone alright, i use the command python -m pip install odfpy
try and see if it work for you though.
If it does not work, maybe try and create a virtual environment if you haven't created it yet.
In my case i was getting same error while using import-export django module. Installing odf library didn't worked got same error. I resolve this issue by simply pip install tablib==0.14.0.

Installing and using npTDMS with Spyder - anaconda3

I have successfully installed npTDMS as seen here:
https://pypi.org/project/npTDMS/
If I try to install with command line using either pip or conda I get a message confirming it is already installed, and I see the package at D:\Users\username\anaconda3\pkgs.
On Spyder I have tried using the PYTHON path manager (in the tools menu) to add both:
D:\Users\username\anaconda3\pkgs\nptdms-1.2.0-pyhd8ed1ab_0
D:\Users\username\anaconda3\pkgs\nptdms-1.2.0-pyhd8ed1ab_0\site-packages\nptdms
As far as I understand this should be enough to use the npTDMS package, however when I try to import I get a ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'nptdms'.
I'm fairly new to python overall so maybe there is a simple thing I am missing.
This issue comes when there are multiple versions of python or any package you are running at current time. The same issue was with me too when the IDLE was not able to detect the position of where the package is installed.
My suggestion is that uninstall all the versions of python and the module you are using and install them again. Otherwise shift to any other IDLE, in my recommendation - Visual Studio Code.

Module or Incorrect Python Version Problem?

I'm installing a bunch of python modules on my system that are specific to this code I am going to be working with. Specifically, I used pip install pyda to get the pyda module. To make sure I had gotten all the modules, I went through and ran some of the code snippets, and came across the following error:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pyda.utilities'
I tried using pip install pyda.utilities, but that honestly doesn't make sense, it should have just come with the pyda module. According to this website https://pypi.org/project/pyda/ it seems like it should come with the package. I tried determining if I just installed it in the wrong python version, but I'm having a difficult time forcing it to use the specific python version that I installed the module in (specifically, I tried to create an alias for /usr/bin/python3.7 or something like this as I have seen on other websites, but it just fusses at me that this is simply a directory, incredibly unhelpful because I can't find the corresponding executable, so I'm a bit confused here).
This is a very long question likely with a very simple answer, any thoughts or help on what the issue might be would be appreciated.
Edit: I have determined that it's a package problem, not a python problem. The command 'pip install pyda' is not actually installing everything, oddly enough, which is why it cannot find the pyda.utilities module. Unfortunately, I think this means I will have to install the package manually. I will keep this question posted because of the useful answer on virtual environments, so thanks everyone.
The answer is indeed straightforward. As #Chris indicated in the comments, start using virtual environments.
It's not as complicated as it sounds and there's plenty of tutorials on getting started with virtualenv for Python, like https://uoa-eresearch.github.io/eresearch-cookbook/recipe/2014/11/26/python-virtual-env/
The basic steps:
check you're using the version of Python you want in your virtual environment
if you don't, change directories to where it lives
ensure you have pip and it works
check if you have virtualenv and if you don't pip install virtualenv
create a virtual environment virtualenv /your/env/folder/here
activate the virtual environment with /your/env/folder/here/Scripts/activate
After that, just install the packages you need with pip and they will end up in your virtual environment, with no interference from other Python versions or packages.
Check your python version, if it does not work restart your computer and try run setup.py install on the python command line

How to add pip to path

I used cmd and did pip install requests. However when I go to write my code it gives me an error that I don't have a module named requests but when I run pip list in cmd it says it in the list.
The best way to manage your Python modules and projects is using Anaconda. Install Anaconda for Windows and you can create Virtual environments for individual projects that is a good practice. Good Luck!
You probably dont have the library in the environment you are using. If you are using a IDE like pycharm ensure under interpreter you have the library there.
I dont think the issue is not having pip in your path.

Windows Python Virtualenv Install PIL and MySQL

In windows I'm having trouble installing things such as PIL and MySQL inside my virtualenv for Python 2.7 64-bit.
I've downloaded extensions from here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ and installed them globally.
But how can I get them to apply to my virtualenv installation?
If I do a re-installation of virtualenv for my project, will it inherit the currently installed PIL and MySQL?
My main error is when I do a pip installed: error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat
Now what I've read is I need Visual Studio to compile such things, and I'm hoping this isn't the only way to get things working.
Create your environment with the --system-site-packages option. Once you are in the virtual environment, if you try to import a package that isn't installed, it will try to find it in the global site packages and only if it can't find it there will it raise an ImportError.
This is by far the simplest way to do what you are trying on Windows - short of creating your own build environment - which I can tell you from my experience isn't always guaranteed to work.
If you do go with this approach, make sure you still add the package (and ideally pin it) in your requirements.txt file. This way if you were to deploy it on another environment, you will not miss any dependencies.
