Answer 1

In a Notebook's cell type and execute the code:

import sys  
!{sys.executable} -m pip install --user matplotlib

and reload the kernel

Answer 2

open terminal and change the directory to Scripts folder where python installed. Then type the following command and hit enter

pip install matplotlib

Hope this will solve the issue.

Answer 3

I was facing the exact issue. It turns out that it was using the system Python version despite me having activated my virtual environment.

This is what eventually worked.

If you are using a virtual environment which has a name say myvenv, first activate it using command:

source activate myvenv

Then install module ipykernel using the command:

pip install ipykernel

Finally run (change myvenv in code below to the name of your environment):

ipykernel install --user --name myvenv --display-name "Python (myvenv)" 

Now restart the notebook and it should pick up the Python version on your virtual environment.
