I hasve repeatedly tried now to set up the Django Virtual Environment without any success! Just what am I doing wrong anyway?? I am at my "wit's end" trying to figure out what the specific problem is.

c:\Users\SteveB\Desktop>virtualenv steve1

Using base prefix 'C:\\Python 3.5'

New python executable in steve1\Scripts\python.exe

Installing setuptools, pip, wheel...

If you have uninstalled and reinstalled virtualenv exactly the way the
virtualenv docs require for Windows and you still get the same problem I
think your environment must be blocking things.

Maybe there is a virtualenv mailing list you could join and get some
help from virtualenv experts. I use it but I installed it some time ago
and it just works for me.

It will be well worth your time and effort to keep trying.

Good luck
