Trying to get Scrapy to work with Pycharm in Windows

I am migrating to Windows, and am desiring to get Scrapy to work with Pycharm. What I have tried adding:

from scrapy.cmdline import execute

As well as changing - /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/scrapy/cmdline.py. It did not like this.

My output looks like this-

I have also tried:

from scrapy import cmdline    
cmdline.execute("scrapy crawl spider".split())

As well as setting the "script" parameter to /path_to_project_env/env/bin/scrapy

I get: "

*] beginning main thread
Scrapy 1.4.0 - no active project

Unknown command: crawl

Use "scrapy" to see available commands

Process finished with exit code 2 " Though nothing is executed, no website is scraped.

I can run scrapy fine in CMD and in Linux.

It does not want to recognise Scrapy with Windows.

I would install scrapy with anaconda, which I find very convenient (even under Windows): conda install scrapy. Hope this helps.
