I'm using the latest version of Python on Windows and I'm trying to use venv with the following code:



C:envs> py -m venv test


Even if it actually creates the venv, it returns this error and I don't understand why.
Moreover I can't activate the venv, the code



C:envs> C:envstestScriptsactivate.bat


returns




"C:envstestScriptsactivate.bat" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

    Solved. It is a bug when debug binaries are installed. See bugs.python.org/issue36441

I am using python version 3.7.3 it gave me error states that "No such file or directory: 'C:python37libvenvscriptsntpython_d.exe'" at the time of creation of project in pycharm.



I copied following files from python location(C:Program FilesPython37) to the (C:Program FilesPython37Libvenvscriptsnt) and it worked for me



1) python_d.exe

2) python_d.pdb

3) pythonw_d.exe

4) pythonw_d.pdb

    As Villani mentioned in his own comment, it's a debug binaries problem.



    It will be fixed in the upcoming 3.7.4 release. (Planned for 24/06)



    Either downgrade to 3.7.2 or install without debug binaries.

        The problem is , your virtual environment could not find debugger resources. The venv module's resources dont have those resources (probably a bug). The easy solution is.



        1. Fix the venv module resources first: Copy debugger symbols to venv resources. In your python installation directory copy python_d.pdb, python_d.exe, pythonw_d.pdb, pythonw_d.exe and past inside (installation directory) Lib>venv>scripts>nt. In this nt folder should also have (already present) python.exe , python.pdb , pythonw.exe, pythonw.pdb


        2. Now, try to create virtual environment using



          python -m venv py37dev

                                  The problem is , your virtual environment could not find debugger resources. The venv module's resources dont have those resources (probably a bug). The easy solution is.



                                  1. Fix the venv module resources first: Copy debugger symbols to venv resources. In your python installation directory copy python_d.pdb, python_d.exe, pythonw_d.pdb, pythonw_d.exe and past inside (installation directory) Lib>venv>scripts>nt. In this nt folder should also have (already present) python.exe , python.pdb , pythonw.exe, pythonw.pdb


                                  2. Now, try to create virtual environment using



                                    python -m venv py37dev
