  • Same happening here. I have python 3.7 64 bit version on my Windows 10 64-bit machine. I installed numpy,pandas,scipy with no problem but matplotlib is giving error and not installing. – Indrajit Banerjee Jul 03 '18 at 10:46
  • I checked here https://pypi.org/project/matplotlib/#files. It looks like they do not yet have a Windows version of the matplotlib wheel for Python 3.7. – Bobby Durrett Jul 05 '18 at 19:52
  • I checked pypi.org/project/matplotlib/#files again. On July 9th they posted wheels for Windows. – Bobby Durrett Jul 12 '18 at 16:50

Forst of all make sure you have pip working. To install pip please follow the link Pip install and then update the setup And try:

python -mpip install -U pip
python -mpip install -U matplotlib

and if does not work then use following

pip install --upgrade setuptools

I had the same problem. Newly installed windows, only python 3.7.0 installed. No security software installed.
Those upgrade command do not work at all.
After rollback to 3.6.5, they could be installed normally.
