How can I change the interpreter in PyCharm?
To change the interpreter of PyCharm, you can follow these steps:
- Open PyCharm and open your project.
- Click on the “File” menu bar, then select “Settings” (or in Windows click “File”, then select “Settings”, in Mac click “PyCharm”, then select “Preferences”).
- In the pop-up window, locate “Project: [project name]” and then click on “Project Interpreter”.
- On the “Project Interpreter” page, you will see the interpreter being used for the current project. Click on the gear icon in the top right corner, then choose “Add”.
- In the pop-up window, choose the interpreter you want. You can either select an interpreter already installed in the system or choose one from a created virtual environment.
- Click on “OK” to complete the replacement of the interpreter.
After completing the steps above, PyCharm will use the new interpreter selected by you to run and debug your project.
