If you're on Windows, consider using @kirankotari's [`pyenv-win`](https://github.com/pyenv-win/pyenv-win) fork. (Pyenv does not work in Windows outside the Windows Subsystem for Linux.)

### The automatic installer
|
### Windows
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Pyenv does not officially support Windows and does not work in Windows outside
|
||||||
|
the Windows Subsystem for Linux.
|
||||||
|
Moreover, even there, the Pythons it installs are not native Windows versions
|
||||||
|
but rather Linux versions run through a compatibility layer --
|
||||||
|
so you won't get Windows-specific functionality.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you're in Windows, we recommend using @kirankotari's [`pyenv-win`](https://github.com/pyenv-win/pyenv-win) fork --
|
||||||
|
which does install native Windows Python versions.
