Hello, this is a continuation from the post made 11 hours ago, I did the command 'pip install pyserial' in my windows cmd, and that was successful, I then checked my version of python, which came across as 3.9.13, my Pycharm also says 3.9 in the bottom right. Although when I go into Pycharm, and type "import serial", It says that there is "No module named ' serial ' "

Remember to:

  • Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
  • Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
  • Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Probably you need to run the pip install inside PyCharm also. ISTR that it has it's own Python environment, and may not see installs you do outside pycharm.

Whenever I try it inside pycharm, it just returns that install is an invalid syntax

Reach their instructions carefully. Probably you're typing pip install at a Python prompt, where it is indeed not valid Python.

See exactly what the page above says to do.
