dear [hakwon\_kim](https://forum.anaconda.com/u/hakwon_kim).

Thank you for your posting.

The reason is simple.  
Earlier, it was installed with the option to select system Python, so the python package installed with the pip command will be installed in the system side site-package.

In that state, when Anaconda’s Jupyter is started, Anaconda’s Jupyter searches scite-package on the anaconda directory. However, as I wrote earlier, it doesn’t exist there. Therefore, an error will occur.

To solve this problem,  
pip unistall pyautogui  
after running  
conda install -c conda-forge pyautogui  
will install pyautogui on the Anaconda side.

Regards, you.
