I can install other packages, but can't install Scrapy. I get the following errors:

warning: build_py: byte-compiling is disabled, skipping.

running build_ext
building 'lxml.etree' extension
error: Microsoft Visual C++ 10.0 is required (Unable to find vcvarsall.bat).

However, C++ is installed, which I installed numerous of times. I have x86 and 64 bit installations (not sure if it's 10.0) but I have 2013-2017 versions installed. enter image description here

download the latest Twisted package from https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#twisted

You want to use the amd64 if you have Windows 64 (regardless if it's an Intel processor or not)

You can use any browser for the download and copy/paste the file into the project folder of your current pycharm project.

Then in pycharm type this:

pip install Twisted-20.3.0-cp39-cp39-win_amd64.whl

(assuming that your package was Twisted-20.3.0-cp39-cp39-win_amd64.whl) then proceed with:

pip install Scrapy
