Use virtualenv on Windows 10

You need to have the utility virtualenv installed on our system (see my other gist).

Create virtual environment

Suppose you want to name your virtual environment .venv. Run

virtualenv --python '<absolute-path-to-Python-executable>/python.exe' .venv

Activate the virtual environment

In the directory where your .venv resides, run

.\.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

Deactivate the virtual environment

In the directory where your .venv resides, run

deactivate
