great! but apparently my certificate are in anaconda3 and I have the following error:

os.remove(openssl_cafile)
PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: 'anaconda3'

After 2 days of searching...this solved my issues, thank you!

File "D:\PTest\ssl_certificate.py", line 29, in main
os.chdir(openssl_dir)
FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified: 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\SSL'
such folder is not there in my windows 11

Update:
Fixed it by creating a folder named SSL in C:\Program Files\Common Files\

I got the following errror:
Could not fetch URL https://pypi.org/simple/certifi/: There was a problem confirming the ssl certificate: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='pypi.org', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /simple/certifi/ (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:992)'))) - skipping
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement certifi (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for certifi

I'm in Windows 10. How to resolve this error? Thanks.

Thanks, it solves my problem!

Thanks! You'r the best!

Yes!! It runs! Thanks for that life saver!

perfect!! thanks

I use Win11, and first it didn't find the directory, so I created the folder 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\SSL' manually.
Then, I'm having this error - ideas?

Edit: I was too quick to post. It failed when running from PyCharm but then worked when running it via Powershell as admin

thank you

Thank you .. helped a lot

Thanks a lot !!

Just change this part to not get FileNotFound Error :

FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified: 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\ssl'

    try:
        os.chdir(openssl_dir)
    except FileNotFoundError:
        os.makedirs(openssl_dir)
        os.chdir(openssl_dir)

I have been trying to run this but I get this error:

Can anybody help?

@sbrunswi try to run this script with sudo
If that doesn't help, try to use chmod -R 777 {path to your site-packages folder}/certifi
I'm not sure, but I hope it helps

Still getting error, @arkahome , could you please help to fix the issue,

Great, it solves the problem directly！
