In my older virtualenv video, I got a ton of requests to show how to use virtual environments on Windows. I hope this helps!

Thank you for this tutorial! I couldn't figure out how to use VENV on my own, even though I read a book called " Test Driven Development" because the author explained how to use VENV on mac. Corey, you're the man!

[doneenhesse]

This has been so helpful! My class focused mostly on programming, and so we didn't really understand what we were doing during setup, but your videos make it very clear and easy! Thank you!

Corey...You are the Guru of python world..thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge as always!

[pragatisingh]

This is just perfect. I had been looking to understand venv for quite sometime now, and this clears it all. Great job!!!

[SamarHussain]

This is the best venv tutorial that I've ever seen. Its bookmarked in my browser for over 1.5 years now. I get back to it whenever I miss something. Thanks man (y)

[simonolofsson]

This is exactly what I needed just now for my project which is rapidly growing in complexity. Thanks Corey!

[parthzala]

Great tutorial! I am a hobbyist programmer, not an expert. I have been learning my self and this really helped.

[micahjesse]

This is the best video I've seen this year so far!!! I might be exaggerating but you sir have helped me solve a problem I was working on for the last 20+ hrs!

[hangfirers]

Thank you so much! I’ve searched and read and tried everything on the net on how to set up venv but this is the only one that worked.

[JSRAumDhyanam]

Corey, I watched lot of videos about the environment and virtual environment but could not understand. Your explanations technique is the best. Thanks.

[bryanaguilar]

This was great. I was thinking of questions as the video moved along and then you ended up answering them all. Great work Corey.

[mihaigrigore]

Thank you Corey for this excellent video on virtual environments. I needed it. You do not assume anything as known and this is very good, especially for beginners. For me, the best explanation on this topic I found!

[ayodele_great]

Many thanks for this tutorial. You have saved me from what I spent a whole weekend trying to figure out.
