PyCharm install Django failed
I have some kind of a dumb problem with django installation.
When I tried to install it without PyCharm, it didn't work within cmd (ssl error), so following stackoverflow advice I used Anaconda Prompt and managed to install it. Now I started using PyCharm and I face the same error again. Is there anything that could be done?
The error:

I managed to solve it even though I spent three previous weeks battling against this problem! Think it might be helpful for someone, so here is my solution:
I changed terminal settings from cmd to Anaconda Prompt using this (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49392719/get-the-anaconda-prompt-running-in-the-pycharm-terminal). Then I closed and opened the app, opened a new project window and enabled inheriting global packages like this:
I don't know if it was one of those things or the combination of them, but now Django works. Closing this!
