ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'wget'

Question

I am trying to import wget in my python 3.8 running in the notebook. I tried pip install wget it says "Requirement already satisfied: wget in c:\users\mahmu\appdata\local\programs\python\python38\lib\site-packages (3.2)" but getting the following error when trying to import it:

if os.name=='nt':
    !pip install wget
    import wget

Output

Collecting wget
  Using cached wget-3.2.zip (10 kB)
  Preparing metadata (setup.py): started
  Preparing metadata (setup.py): finished with status 'done'
Using legacy 'setup.py install' for wget, since package 'wheel' is not installed.

Answer 1

notebook needs to restart to import modules that where installed while the notebook was running. so install the module then restart the notebook

you might get a message like this in Jupiter notebook when you in install a module while running:

Note: you may need to restart the kernel to use updated packages.
