I'm trying to install PyQt pip install pyqt5, and it fails at the very end: ERROR: Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [WinError 2] Cannot find file: 'C:\\Python38\\Scripts\\pylupdate5.exe' -> 'C:\\Python38\\Scripts\\pylupdate5.exe.deleteme'

Any ideas? PyQt documentation says nothing about this error, this one command should install it.

  • Ok, so the answer is don't use command because it doesn't work. I get a lot of warnings even while installing suggested vs code packages, but i suppose this is how python (doesn't) works. – Catter897 Oct 27 '20 at 13:16

Must be the anti-virus or firewall. Disable it and try again.
