Tensorflow installation error: not a supported wheel on this platform - Python 3.6.7 - pip 20.0.2

I know this question has been asked a couple of times but I can't seem to find a proper answer. I am trying to install tensorflow on my Windows x64 machine but keep on getting the error: ERROR: tensorflow_cpu-2.1.0-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

I work with : - Python 3.6.7 - pip 20.0.2 - virtualenv 20.0.4

after activating the virtualenv: .\venv\Scripts\activate

I try pip install --upgrade https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/windows/cpu/tensorflow_cpu-2.1.0-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl

for which I get: ERROR: tensorflow_cpu-2.1.0-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

If anyone has ran on these issues, should I upgrade / downgrade any of these versions of Python, pip or virtualenv ?

If you have conda installed, I can help you.

Start with conda base shell (start menu -> Anaconda -> Anaconda prompt).

1) create environment

conda create --name tensorflow21_env

2) activate environment

conda activate tensorflow21_env

3) install

  1. conda install python=3.7

  2. pip install tensorflow-cpu #install tensorflow=2.1.0;

I worked with Python 3.7.6 and pip 20.0.2.

pip installed package:

tensorflow_cpu-2.1.0-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl

I hope it helps.
