Error while finding module specification for 'spyder_kernels.console' (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'spyder_kernels')

Question

I just upgraded python from 3.10 to 3.11.2 If I check in a windows powershell it was successful and is now the default interpreter. However, when I try to change the interpreter in Spyder I get the following error:

C:\Program Files\Python311\pythonw.exe: Error while finding module specification for 'spyder_kernels.console' (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'spyder_kernels')

The kernels are installed, as you can see if I try to pip install spyder_kernels the message that all requirements are met like so:

Note: you may need to restart the kernel to use updated packages.

I further tried installing a specific spyder_kernel==2.4.3 but then I get the message

pip install spyder-kernels==2.4.3

There is a list of other .py files here that I had to delete as the thread is too long.

Restarting kernel...

I'm not sure what to do now. Any ideas?

Ok. So what's happening is pip is trying to install spyder_kernels to Python 3.8, as that is the first version listed in PATH (Windows uses this to find where your interpreter is). What pip is doing is it's checking if spyder-kernels is installed for Python 3.8, not 3.11.

Try typing this: C:\Users\TE\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python311\python.exe -m pip install spyder-kernels or C:\Program Files\Python311\python.exe -m pip install spyder-kernels Or go to System Properties>Enviromental Variables>Click Path>Edit, then move ...\Python311\Scripts and ...\Python311 to the top.

Let me know if this helps

Thanks for the tip, whilst this is true in practice, this wasn't the case with my issue and it was actually to do with some security protocols that block me from changing Path priorities in my system and environment variables. – Tom Apr 17 '23 at 06:21
Yeah, well eitherways, glad you managed to fix it! Enjoy! – Anony Mous Apr 17 '23 at 11:06
