The `psychopy-env.yml` file downloadable from the [installation](https://www.psychopy.org/download.html) page is out of date. It is set to use Python 3.6 and installs psychopy version: 2021.2.3.

```auto
>psychopy --version

PsychoPy3, version 2021.2.3 (c)Jonathan Peirce 2018, GNU GPL license

>

```

I’m new so I don’t know the best place to report this or if just changing the python dependency will install a newer version. But as the same page says:

> This method should work on a range of versions of Python but **we strongly recommend you use Python 3.8**. Older Python versions are no longer being tested and may not work correctly…

So this seems to be a problem.

Worth mentioning, in case someone who can make changes to the website and wants to fix this ever reads this:

The “current” version of the Conda environment file is at:

> <https://github.com/psychopy/psychopy/blob/dev/conda/psychopy-env.yml>

but that is not what links from the installation page.

**NB:** This file still does not install `psychopy` 2022.2.5.

I will re-ask this question in a better way to see if I get an answer.
