Hi @Carolzheng. Yeah, this wheel file won't work on Windows. Can you add more detail on what version of Windows you're using, and how you tried to install kaleido?

Carolzheng commented 3 years ago

I'm on Windows 10, I tried to install by downloading this wheel file and then use pip install the wheel file - it actually didn't give me any error on the installation.

The recommend was to install kaleido is from PyPI (or conda-forge) so that the correct version for your operating system will be installed:

$ pip install kaleido

Have you tried this? If so, did you get an error?
