1  Remove the Python environment There is no command to remove a virtualenv so you need to do that by hand  you will need to deactivate if you have it on and remove the folder  deactivate rm -rf  lt env name gt   2  Create an env  with another Python version When you create an environment the python uses the current version by default  so if you want another one you will need to specify at the moment you are creating it  To make and env  with Python 3 7 called MyEnv just type  python3 7 -m venv MyEnv  Now to make with Python 2 X use virtualenv instead of venv  python2 7 -m virtualenv MyEnv  3  List all Python versions on my machine If any of the previous lines of code didn t worked you probably don t have the specific version installed  First list all your versions with  ls -ls  usr bin python   If you didn t find it  install Python 3 7 using apt-get  sudo apt-get install python3 7  And with yum  sudo yum install python3  4  Best practice  upgrade you pip  weekly  pip install --upgrade pip
