I have accidentally changed my pygame .whl to open with notepad. This means I get this error when trying to install pygame with the CMD. What I typed

pip3 install pygame-1.9.3-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl

error 

pygame-1.9.3-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform

    Those two things are unrelated - the error message you receive is because you have the wrong wheel for your installed Python interpreter. If you need help figuring out which one you need you have to post the output you get when you run `python` via the command line (it shows which version and whether its 32 or 64 bit) – UnholySheep Apr 02 '17 at 21:32

    and why bother downloading the .whl file? just do pip3 install pygame... – Taku Apr 02 '17 at 21:35
  • Ok thanks I just found out my python is 32 bit. I am going to try it again now but use the pygame 32 bit version instead. If this works I am an idiot xD – nick Apr 02 '17 at 21:37
  • Ok I am an idiot thanks unholySheep it was because my python was 32 bit and my pygame was 64 bit. xD – nick Apr 02 '17 at 21:43
