Install TA-lib issue

Question

I know there are lots of issues about installing ta-lib. I tried some but not working. Example i tried :

For the first, i have this environment :

Python 3.9.9 (tags/v3.9.9:ccb0e6a, Nov 15 2021, 18:08:50) [MSC v.1929 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

I dll that : TA_Lib-0.4.22-cp39-cp39-win32 here (https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#ta-lib)

And this is the issue :

C:\Users\****>pip3 install TA_Lib-0.4.22-cp39-cp39-win32
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement TA_Lib-0.4.22-cp39-cp39-win32 (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for TA_Lib-0.4.22-cp39-cp39-win32

(i tried with win64 too).

And with the second solution, i dll the zip and unzipped at C:, i opened visual studio prompt command and tried the command "nmake" but nothing is working

EDIT for comment :

How about the official guide that says: `pip install TA-Lib` Does it work? — truf, Dec 28 '21 at 00:43

pip3 install wheel

Then you need to download relevant TA-Lib districution from here https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#ta-lib, probably TA_Lib‑0.4.24‑cp39‑cp39‑win_amd64.whl, then

pip3 install TA_Lib‑0.4.24‑cp39‑cp39‑win_amd64.whl
