Usage

• Update the list of discoverable Python versions using: pyenv update command for pyenv-win 2.64.x and 2.32.x versions
• To view a list of python versions supported by pyenv windows: pyenv install -l
• To install a python version: pyenv install 3.5.2
  • Note: An install wizard may pop up for some non-silent installs. You’ll need to click through the wizard during installation. There’s no need to change any options in it. or you can use -q for quite installation
  • You can also install multiple versions in one command too: pyenv install 2.4.3 3.6.8
• To set a python version as the global version: pyenv global 3.5.2
  • This is the version of python that will be used by default if a local version (see below) isn’t set.
  • Note: The version must first be installed.
• To set a python version as the local version: pyenv local 3.5.2.
  • The version given will be used whenever python is called from within this folder. This is different than a virtual env, which needs to be explicitly activated.
  • Note: The version must first be installed.
• After (un)installing any libraries using pip or modifying the files in a version’s folder, you must run pyenv rehash to update pyenv with new shims for the python and libraries’ executables.
  • Note: This must be run outside of the .pyenv folder.
• To uninstall a python version: pyenv uninstall 3.5.2
• To view which python you are using and its path: pyenv version
