I know there is already a question about this but it didn't work for me.

When I do 

pip install zbar

it returns this

I tried installing the wheel like the question suggested and it worked for me before. But now it just returns this

zbar-0.10-cp27-none-win_amd64 (1).whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

It also says to give the return of python --version so this is mine

Python 2.7.15

  • *`zbar-0.10-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl` is not a supported wheel on this platform* means that you currently have 32-bit Python, not 64. Either download 32-bit wheel or install 64-bit Python. – phd Jan 24 '19 at 01:47
  • I have the 64-bit version of Python and it still gives me the same result. And it used to work for me and I never reinstalled Python. – loopis jones Jan 25 '19 at 16:53
