Hey @surbhi11, do you have anaconda installed in your system or not. ?

Hey @surbhi11, so now you have two version installed of python, so now instead of improving, you have worsened the situation. Now follow up accordingly as I say and in case if you stuck at any step, directly DM me for an early response. You can post here as well, but here you may need to wait for some time to get reply.

  1. Go to programs and features, uninstall all python packages showing in the list, uninstall anaconda. After uninstalling you should not have any of python and anaconda being shown in the list.
  2. Go to the link and than download and install the anaconda package.
  3. Note: while installing it will ask to Add anaconda and python paths Make sure you check both checkboxes ( a tick will appear in both check boxes).
  4. if anaconda comes pre installed with scrapy than you will be able to run your code successfully. If not, then open anaconda prompt and use this command to install,
    conda install -c conda-forge scrapy

Hope this will resolve your doubt. :blush:
