pyautogui.locateCenterOnScreen ERROR "pyscreeze.PyScreezeException: The Pillow package is required to use this function"

I am running into an issue and I am not sure what is causing it.

The code I am running is as follows:

gs_empty_search_btn_x, gs_empty_search_btn_y = pyautogui.locateCenterOnScreen('pictures/shopping/search_bar_empty.png',
                                                                              confidence=.8)
print(gs_empty_search_btn_x)

For reference:

  • My OS is Windows
  • I am using PyCharm Community 2022.2.1
  • I have PIL (9.2.0) installed
  • PyAutoGui (0.9.53) installed

I ran pip install Pillow & pip install --upgrade Pillow" already and got "Requirement already satisfied" for both

I tried File -> Settings -> Project name -> Python Interpreter -> + -> Type pyautogui -> Install Package

I tried Python Packages > Pillow > Uninstalled Pillow > Re-Installed Pillow , still got the same error.

I added import PIL and Installed Pillow manually, still not working

I did pip freeze and got Pillow ==9.2.0

Nothing I am doing is working. Please help!

I figured it out! Had to delete everything and start over and delete a few packages that relied on other Python versions
