Answer 1

This worked for me:

pip install pycocotools-windows 

Goto

Answer 2

I just went down this list until I found one that worked:

conda install -c conda-forge pycocotools
conda install -c conda-forge/label/gcc7 pycocotools
conda install -c conda-forge/label/cf201901 pycocotools
conda install -c conda-forge/label/cf202003 pycocotools

Annoyingly, it seems that for some setups pycocotools will install just fine. But then, when you want to import it, the script will freeze at the import step. In that case, just go down the list and try the next one.

The last one (and most recent) worked for me, so perhaps start there.

This still doesn't work for me. I'm using the following on a Windows 10 64-bit environment: Conda 4.8.3 and Python 3.7.7 – Verdaverdant

Worked fine for me with mamba: mamba install -c conda-forge pycocotools – Sapwood

Answer 3

Following the same steps as specified here:

• Install Visual C++ 2015 Build Tools from here with default selection.

• Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools and run vcbuildtools_msbuild.bat

• In Anaconda, run

• pip install git+https://github.com/philferriere/cocoapi.git#egg=pycocotools^&subdirectory=PythonAPI
