I can’t install pyaudio on Windows? How to solve “error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 is required.”?

  • 6

I have a Windows 10 PC and I want to install pyaudio to use it with my chatbot, powered by chatterbot.

I tried 2 different ways to install pyaudio.

The first way is doing this on the command prompt:

python -m pip install PyAudio

This is the result:

   C:\Users\Waaberi>python -m pip install PyAudio

The second way is entering this command:

python pip install python-pyaudio

and it does nothing.

      The answer by Agalin is already great and I just want to explain it in a step by step format for a novice like myself:

      • find your Python version by python --version mine is 3.7.3 for example
      • the easiest way to check either you have 64 or 32 Python just open it in the terminal:
      
      
      • find the appropriate .whl file from here, for example mine is PyAudio‑0.2.11‑cp37‑cp37m‑win_amd64.whl, and download it.
      • go to the folder where it is downloaded for example cd C:\Users\foobar\Downloads
      • install the .whl file with pip for example in my case:
      pip install PyAudio-0.2.11-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl
