🔒 Pip installing to different Python version

[round jasper]

I'm in the command line on Python version 3.11, in a venv environment. I installed opencv-python, but it installs to python 3.12, and my program therefore can't import it. I would like to be in 3.11, install a module in my code, and then be able to run it using 3.11.

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.

aha, pip is in python 3.12

Solved by removing the newer version of python
