Together with virtual environments, Pyenv is one of the most important tools for everyone who uses Python regularly. It allows you to easily switch between different versions of Python and set the version of Python that your projects or applications will use.


Pyenv is an open-source tool that enables you to manage multiple versions of Python on a single machine. I will talk about how to install Pyenv on a Windows 10/11 machine to change and manage multiple python versions within the same project. In this post, I will tell you why you should not install Python from the official website if you want to switch Python versions (which you would like to!) and if you plan to use a virtual environment. Do you want to start coding Python on a Windows machine? I would not suggest installing python from the official website and installing packages there! Instead, the better way to install Python is through Pyenv.
