using Tensorflow with Anaconda and PyCharm on Windows

Question

I am using Anaconda 4.3.1 64 Bit on Windows 10 64 Bit. I have successfully installed Tensorflow (CPU) according to this. The test program runs in the command line, but not in PyCharm. The problem is that it works only with activate tensorflow.

I followed the steps from Pycharm anaconda import tensor flow library issue ("You need to do these following steps:"). It seems now that tensorflow is loaded, but I get a new error:

ImportError: Importing the multiarray numpy extension module failed. Most likely you are trying to import a failed build of numpy. If you're working with a numpy git repo, try git clean -xdf (removes all files not under version control). Otherwise reinstall numpy.

How can I use TensorFlow in PyCharm? (BTW: Tensorflow works with PyCharm on my Fedora VM.)

Edit:

Can I use TensorFlow with Jupyter? When running "Jupyter (tensorflow)" from the Anaconda menu, a console window opens and immediately closes.

Answer 1

When PyCharm is open: if you navigate to preferences: Project: Project Interpreter. You can there either create your own virtualenv (and then manually install the required packages) or make sure you have selected the anaconda python interpreter for your project.
