Hi @stmoe,

you have to execute all the steps in the post. You want cvb to be installed to Python 3.8 , don’t you? Please install the newest :cvb: version.  
Then:

1. rename the wheel in %CVB%\Lib\Python such that Python 3.8s pip check doesn’t reject the installation by adding “cp38” to the wheels file name (i.e. “cvb-1.1-cp35.cp36.cp37.cp38-none-win\_amd64.whl”)
2. install it via python3.8s pip installer via \<yourpathtopython3.8.exe\> -m pip install %CVB%\Lib\Python\cvb-1.1-cp35.cp36.cp37.cp38-none-win\_amd64.whl
3. now replace the init file in **python3.8 site-packages** (find it via \<yourpathtopython3.8.exe\> -c “import site; print(site.getsitepackages())”) with the provided one in the [post](https://forum.commonvisionblox.com/t/cvb-whl-wheel-file-missing-for-python-3-8/980) as described there.
