If you install running the latest version of python 3.10, you get the following error when installing openvino prerequisites:

Python 3.10.0
ECHO is off.
Unsupported Python version. Please install Python 3.5 (64-bit) or higher from https://www.python.org/downloads/

@robopp  Not sure it is a bug. Have you noticed product Release Notes, where it explicitly mentioned that product validated on Python 3.6-3.7 (at maximum 3.8 on Windows only)

Sorry, I did not read the release notes. Not a bug then, just a bad error message saying "Please install Python 3.5 (64-bit) or higher". Since 3.10 is higher than 3.5, it seemed like a bug in detecting the current version. Thanks.

Hi robopp,

It is not a bug. Python 3.10 is not supported yet in the OpenVINO toolkit. You can check the prerequisites for OpenVINO installation in this section of the documentation.

https://docs.openvinotoolkit.org/latest/openvino_docs_install_guides_installing_openvino_windows.html

 

The supported version is from Python 3.6-Python 3.8 64-bit.

 

Regards,

Aznie
