I am getting the error below when trying to install tensorflow for python in pip3 on Windows 10 Home. I will try installing via Anaconda next but does anyone know if tensorflow will work with python 3.6.4? (My system is pretty old.)

Error: "Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for tensorflow"

The command I am using is: pip3 install --upgrade tensorflow

Currently I have python version 3.6.4

Other Info: Windows 10 Home Python 3.6.4 (v3.6.4:d48eceb, Dec 19 2017, 06:04:45) [MSC v.1900 32 bit (Intel)] Processor: AMT Phenom(tm) Quad-Core Processor 2.4GHz

  • Installing TF on Windows tends to be messy...have you tried: `pip install --ignore-installed --upgrade tensorflow `? – Evan Weissburg Jan 22 '18 at 20:57

    Thanks for taking the time to reply. Looks like that's a no go. I read on another thread not to try it unless you are using Python 3.5.3-amd64 and that newer versions would probably not install right. The [thread](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42011070) was regarding the GPU version though and was a bit older so I'm not sure if it still applies. I'll keep trying and post progress if any is made. – jWolf Jan 22 '18 at 22:05
  • Ok, I'm good to go. I installed using the information from the [install page](https://www.tensorflow.org/install/install_windows) under the "Installing with Anaconda" section. (worked like a charm) – jWolf Jan 22 '18 at 22:17

Upgrading from python 32 bits to Python 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6 (64 bits) worked for me.

I had the same issue, later figured out it has to do something with pip3 version.

Try running:

To upgrade pip3 version

pip3 install --upgrade pip

Then try:

pip3 install tensorflow==2.2

It's upon you which version of tensorflow you want to install

For those passing by and having the same error you may need to:

  • downgrade/upgrade python version so that it fits in the supported interval - from what I've read tensorflow usually supports the latest version available on ubuntu and a bit before which is right now one version lower (3.5-3.8 instead of 3.9)
  • upgrade python to a 64bit version

Hope this helped, downgrading worked for me
