I assume that's in Windows Powershell. I think it's .\Scripts\activate.bat

I would also check to ensure that the Scripts folder exists in your current directory.

[Lutalo Bbosa joseph]

if linux, then activating the env is source/bin/activate

after changing to that directory

In Windows, you can active by 'cmd' :D

Hi Aditya,

The correct incantation for Powershell is

.\Scripts\activate.ps1

The version without any extension, or with .bat, would be correct if
you were running standard Windows cmd instead.

Good luck,

Michal

I had the same issue today, but i was able to fix it. I use windows 10 too. Kindly follow this guide to setup your virtualenv:

Step One: This is really important to do because i really don't know what is the major cause of this errors but what i discovered in my time is the installation right from the start of python itself needs to be properly done. So do this uninstall everything that has to do with python, anaconda, any python version you have, pycharm and all the likes, also go to your path variable and remove any path that show python.

Step Two: Goto https://www.python.org/downloads/ and download V3.7.2 the latest version currently on python official website

Step 3: After download, launch the installer ensure you select Add Python 3.6 to PATH, secondly choose customize ensure all is selected hit next

Step 4: Ensure you select the following 

• Install for all users
• Add Python to environment variables
• Create shortcuts for installed applications
• Recompile standard library or whatever this one is

Then hit install

Step 5: once installation is completed, launch your powershell or cmd as admin and type python -V and hit enter. It should output Python 3.7.2

Step 6: Ensure your powershell is run as admin then run this command Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted, follow the instructions and select choose Y to update your powershell

Step 7: Follow this code:

cd ~/

mkdir Env

pip install virtualenv

pip freeze (to verify -- output will be virtualenv==version number)

cd ~/Env

mkdir environment

cd environment

virtualenv .

cd ~\Env\environment

.\Scripts\activate

Gotten here nice work! just try pip freeze (would not returning anything at this point, this confirm your virtualevn is working fine.)

Having Challenge installing django, hola me

[Matthew Pava]

I would switch over to pipenv and leave the details to that.

Okay, I see your problem is that you are doing it the wrong way.
Go to the path where you have your virtual environment folder such as 
cd C:\Python_project\project_name\
if we suppose I have a virtual environment with a directory as 'venv' created inside my project directory 'project_name' and then to activate this virtual environment, I would do
venv\Scripts\activate [ENTER]
Doing this should resolve your problem

Hello, I wanna get the list of Classes and other definitions in a python file,

I had similar problem before.

try 

"cd " until you reach the directory of "scripts" then type "activate".

same thing to deactivate.
