This question already has an answer here:



  • Can't find the modules that have been installed by pip

    1 answer



I installed a module with command



pip install serial


And it appears to have been successful.



I can open up a cmd and enter python and then import serial without any issues.



However, if I open up either



  • Python 3.6 (64-bit)

  • Python 3.6 (32-bit)

  • IDLE (Python 3.6 64-bit)

  • IDLE (Python 3.6 32-bit)

And try the same command (import serial) I get an annoying




Traceback (most recent call last):



File "", line 1, in



ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'serial'




What is going on here?






python python-3.x pip

try these



pip3.6 install serial


or

You probably have more then one Python shell on your PC.
According to your comment , you installed the module on python 2.7.15 and try to work with it in python 3.6.



  1. Install it on the same shell you will use it (using pip command is most convenient)

  2. Configure your IDE to use the correct python shell

Please note that if you use pip from the command line , without entering the python shell , you will not be able to know , on which shell it was installed.



In case you have multiple python shell , you need to enter the python shell and then use pip command.
