I'm installing python package pyautogui through pip, like below:

pip install pyautogui


However, it shows the error:

    ERROR: Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
    ERROR: Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
      File "C:\Users\Winnie\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-install-dxvr5jhi\pygetwindow\setup.py", line 11, in <module>
        long_description = fh.read()
    UnicodeDecodeError: 'cp950' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 903: illegal multibyte sequence
    ----------------------------------------
ERROR: Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in C:\Users\Winnie\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-install-dxvr5jhi\pygetwindow\


I've search my problem on the stackoverflow, and I did the same way as "pip install unroll": "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1

When I tried easy_install -U setuptools
It shows:

error: [WinError 5] Permission denied: 'c:\\users\\winnie\\appdata\\local\\programs\\python\\python37-32\\Scripts\\easy_install.exe'

Here is what I'm using:

  • OS: Windows 10
  • python: 3.7.3
  • pip: 19.1



What's wrong with my computer? Can anyone help me?
Thank you very much

Find the link above those ERROR messages :

Collecting pygetwindow (from pyautogui) Using cached https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/01/ed/56d4a369c6e18f6b239d9ef37b3222ba308bfebf949571b2611ff7d64f1d/PyGetWindow-0.0.4.tar.gz ERROR......

Download it and edit "setup.py":

... # Load version from module (without loading the whole module) with open('src/pygetwindow/init.py', 'r',encoding="UTF-8") as fd: version = re.search(r'^version\s*=\s*\'"[\'"]', fd.read(), re.MULTILINE).group(1) # Read in the README.md for the long description. with open("README.md", "r",encoding="UTF-8") as fh: long_description = fh.read() ...

Add encoding="UTF-8" into the open function arg

Re-archive the tar file, run pip install PyGetWindow-0.0.4.tar

Finally run again pip install pyautogui
