ImportError: The 'enchant' C library was not found. Please install it via your OS package manager, or use a pre-built binary wheel from PyPI

Question

The question is why I see the error message in the title when trying to import enchant. I am using Win64.

Answer 1

Resolved: On Win7-64 I ran

pip3 install pyenchant==1.6.6

which seems to be the latest version of PyEnchant that still shipped with Win-64 binaries. Newer versions did not install for me, but this one did.
