How to install tkinter in pycharm?

Question

I am trying to install tkinter in pycharm but I am not able to find the module. I went to settings, project interpreter. Searched for “tkinter”,”Tkinter”, and “python-tk” but couldn’t find it. Can someone tell me how to install tkinter in pycharm?

Answer 1

This is a common problem that people face while installing tkinter on pycharm. You don’t have a tkinter module like you use while using pip. To install tkinter in Pycharm, you need to install “future” module and restart pycharm. Tkinter will be imported after that.

I install future as suggested but with python 3.8 and pycharm CE this does not work I think somehow it is something to do with my 3.8 install as I have also 3.7 installed and that works ok
