How to Fix The 'Module Not Found' Error for Pygame in Under 2 Minutes! [2023]

How to fix the module not found error when trying to use a python library like pygame.

First check that python and pip are installed and working, then check that the pygame library is installed and lastly change the interpreter used in the editor (VS code and Pycharm)

Thank you for doing this video! I had work 2 years with python but I never had to install it, the company computer came with it. You are awesome!

Thank you so much! I had to change the interpreter in VS code. I think it also helped that I also updated to the latest python version and added it to the path.

Can someone help? I'm working in IDLE, and I followed all the steps except for the interpreter changes. Is there a way to add pygame as an interpreter in IDLE?
Pygame works on my school computer, so I know the issue isn't my code, but when I try to run the program on my home computer I get the error. If anyone has any ideas as to what might be the problem, I'd really appreciate it!

I am not sure if you will reply but what if I am on python shell?
