Unable to import 'selenium' pylint(import-error) (solution)

youHaveAlsoBeenABeginner :

I had this error while I was working on my assignment using python 3.7 in Visual Studio Code. I tried to comment in some previous stackoverflow posts but it doesn't allow me to comment. So I'm sharing the solution I found in this post.

After searching for a solution I came up with the following, using also steps from this link.

  1. Create virtual environment (venv) in the same folder your python file is located C:\YourFolderPathHere>python3 -m venv nameOfYourVenv
  2. Activate your python virtual environment C:\YourFolderPathHere>nameOfYourVenv\Scripts\activate.bat
  3. Make sure selenium and pylint are installed within this virtual environment
    (nameOfYourVenv) C:\YourFolderPathHere>pip install selenium
    (nameOfYourVenv) C:\YourFolderPathHere>pip install pylint
  4. Launch VS Code from cmd
    (nameOfYourVenv) C:\YourFolderPathHere>code .

Other solutions weren't helpful for me but this worked so I hope it'll be useful for you as well. :)
