I have pip'd pycryptodome and criptography today to use in the Spyder IDE but keep getting the error at the bottom of this page when I try to import them.

However, If I try to import them in Sublime Text or IDLE they seem to be working fine.

I am not running Spyder form Anaconda as I was having other issues there with the input() function and am just running it from my Windows platform.

I have tried uninstalling the modules as well as Spyder itself to no avail, had my uni lecturer looking at it this afternoon as well with no such luck.

Python Version 3.9.6 Spyder Version 5.3.1

Any advice? If I need to give more info please let me know what you need and I'll try to get it.

Thanks in advance :)

  • HI Carlos, I followed the link but I am still a bit confused. I do not want to be using Anaconda, I just have Spyder as a standalone IDE. Any advice? – imnotpauleither Jul 07 '22 at 09:34
