This is my code which I copied stright from the kivy website to test the library.

from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.button import Button

class TestApp(App):
    def build(self):
    return Button(text='Hello World')

TestApp().run()

I get this error

Process finished with exit code 1

I tried uninstalling and re-installing as mentioned in sdl2 - ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found and [CRITICAL] [App] Unable to get a Window, abortpost

I also tried to follow a video made this year in case I made some mistake but that didn't help.

(I am using Pycharms, on a windows 10 (home) 64 bit, 16 Gb ram

  • `SDL2` is a library created with C/C++ which you can download from https://www.libsdl.org/ – furas Sep 20 '19 at 06:29
  • Did you install SDL2 *in the environment pycharm is using*? – inclement Sep 20 '19 at 18:28
  • So in case, anyone else has this issue, I just made it in pycharm then ran it straight from CMD. Not sure why this works, but even the developers couldn't figure it out – Helquin Sep 21 '19 at 07:05
