Do you want to install Psychopy? Please refer to the psychopy installation [http://www.psychopy.org/installation.html page] or keep reading. Instructions for Windows users are below those for Linux users.

==Linux==
==Windows (Vista and later) stand-alone==
If you do not use Python for purposes other than PsychoPy experiments, you are advised to use the PsychoPy stand-alone Windows [http://psychopy.org/installation.html installer]. Choose StandalonePsychoPy-1.85.4-win32.exe or something newer if present.
===Stand-alone, post install===
You may want to install additional packages. For instance the RuSocSci package for using the buttonbox.

The authors of Psychopy have written these [http://www.psychopy.org/recipes/addCustomModules.html instructions] for this.
Alternatively you may want to install additional packages using the following method:
* open a command window with administrative privileges (start -> 'cmd' -> run as administrator)
* Go to the folder containing ''pip.py'' (C: -> CD "Program Files(x86)\PsychoPy...\...\...")
* for each package that you want to install type ''python pip.py install <package name>''
==Windows (Vista and later) with PsychoPy 1.85 as library==
If you already have Python 2.7 installed on your computer or if you want to use Python for other purposes as well, you are advised to install PsychoPy as library.
'''Note''' that for the first two steps in the following instructions you need administrative privileges.
Chronological instructions:
# (skip this step if you have Python 2.7 32 bit installed already and you want to keep it) Uninstall all versions of Python 2 that you installed previously. Use ''Programs and Features'' in the Control Panel. Also uninstall all Python packages that you see in ''Programs and Features''. Remove ''C:\Python27''.
# (skip this step if you have Python 2.7 32 bit installed already and you want to keep it) Install the newest 32 bit version of Python 2.7. You can download it [https://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.14/python-2.7.14.msi here]. If that does not work, go [https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2714/ here] and choose the 32 bit installer (Windows x86 MSI Installer). During installation choose 'add python.exe to path'. It is the last option in the list and may not be visible without scrolling down.
# Logout and login again.
If you already have Python 2.7 installed on your computer or if you want to use Python for other purposes as well, you are advised to install PsychoPy as library. This is substantially more work. Perhaps you would really prefer installing Linux on your system rather than doing this.
# Install the newest 32 bit version of Python 2.7. You can download it [https://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.13/python-2.7.13.msi here]. If that does not work, go [https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2713/ here] and choose the 32 bit installer (Windows x86 MSI Installer). During installation choose 'add python.exe to path'.
# Install [https://sourceforge.net/projects/wxpython/files/wxPython/2.8.12.1/wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.12.1-py27.exe/download wxwidgets 2.8] If that does not work, go [https://sourceforge.net/projects/wxpython/files/wxPython/2.8.12.1/ here] and choose wxPython2.8-win64-unicode-2.8.12.1-py27.exe. It is the ancient library used by PsychoPy for its IDE. It is essential that you do NOT install wxpython/wxwidgets from another source.
# Install [https://sourceforge.net/projects/wxpython/files/wxPython/2.8.12.1/wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.12.1-py27.exe/download wxwidgets 2.8] If that does not work, go [https://sourceforge.net/projects/wxpython/files/wxPython/2.8.12.1/ here] and choose wxPython2.8-win64-unicode-2.8.12.1-py27.exe.

# Download this [https://www.socsci.ru.nl/wilberth/nocms/python/DEPS1853.txt file] (right-click -> save link as...) with all other requirements. Use Windows file Explorer to go to the folder where you downloaded it. Shift-right-click to the right of the files (make sure the window is wide enough). Choose 'Open command window here'. From a command line type: <br /><tt>pip install -r DEPS1853.txt</tt><br /> Enjoy watching, and see if there are any errors.

==Windows post install==
==As Library, post install==
Many packages are already present. You have a working system now. You may want to install more. Popular packages are in [https://www.socsci.ru.nl/wilberth/nocms/python/DEPS1853_extra.txt DEPS1853_extra.txt]. You can install them the same way you installed the psychopy dependencies.
You may want to consider installing many more packages. Unless otherwise noted, they can be installed with pip.
For the Spyder IDE you may want to make a link that opens C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\spyder\app\start.py with C:\Python27\pythonw.exe and has C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\spyder\images\spyder.png as icon (In older Windows versions you may have to convert the image to icon format first).
Some packages were not in the file, since installing them that way is not possible:
* PresPy, Neurobs Presentation stimuli from Python. Make a login on the Neurobs website, download PresPy.pyd and put it in C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\.
* Kivy, installation is problematic in Windows.
* [https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/ PyCharm]

=Installing Python 3 and Psychopy 3 for Windows=
Use ''conda'' or ''anaconda-navigator'' to install: wxpython, pandas, lxml, opencv (opencv and vlc are necessary for moviestim2)
If you already have Python 3.7 installed on your computer or if you want to use Python for other purposes as well, you are advised to install PsychoPy as library.
'''Note''' that for the first two steps in the following instructions you need administrative privileges.
Chronological instructions:
# (skip this step if you have Python 3.7 32 bit installed already and you want to keep it) Uninstall all versions of Python 3 that you installed previously. Use ''Programs and Features'' in the Control Panel. Also uninstall all Python packages that you see in ''Programs and Features''. Remove ''C:\Program Files(32)\Python3-32''.
# (skip this step if you have Python 3.7 32 bit installed already and you want to keep it) Install the newest 32 bit version of Python 3.7. You can download it [https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.7.3/Python-3.7.3.tar.xz here]. If that does not work, go [https://www.python.org/downloads/ here] and choose the 32 bit installer. During installation choose 'add python.exe to path'.
# Download this [https://www.socsci.ru.nl/wilberth/nocms/python/DEPS3.txt file] (right-click -> save link as...) with all other requirements. Ope a command window with administrative privileges and to go to the folder where you downloaded it. From the command line type: <br /><tt>pip install -r DEPS3.txt</tt><br /> Enjoy watching, and see if there are any errors.
I thank [http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ Christoph Gohlke] for compiling the individual packages. If you want to use 64 bit Python 3.7, use this [https://www.socsci.ru.nl/wilberth/nocms/python/DEPS3_64.txt dependency file].
=Installing Python 2 and Psychopy 2, Linux=
If you have a Debian based Linux (such as Ubuntu), add the [http://neuro.debian.net/ Neurodabian] repository and then type:
<pre>
sudo apt install psychopy
</pre>
Use the start menu or type ''psychopy'' to start the UI, or use the library from your favorite IDE or from the command line.
=Installing Python 3 and Psychopy 3, Linux=
In ''Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver'' (and probably in other ubuntu versions too) type:
<pre>
sudo apt install python3 python3-pip python3-scipy python3-wxgtk-webview4.0 ffmpeg vlc
sudo -H pip3 install psychopy python-vlc rusocsci
</pre>
Use the start menu or type ''psychopy'' to start the UI, or use the library from your favorite IDE or from the command line.
