I'm trying to use kivy on my Python 2.7 project (in a PyCharm - Windows 10 environment), but I get the following error.
If someone can help me? Thanks
PS: I tried many times uninstalling/reinstalling libraries etc and doing what suggested on posts like this one, but it doesn't work: Kivy not working (Error: Unable to find any valuable Window provider.)

It is looking for the Kivy dependencies (e.g. sdl2) in your virtualenv.
I have encountered the same problem. I did the following and it solved the problem.
if you have not installed all dependencies then the error will occur, Instead of Project Interpreter use the pycharm terminal Then install the following
1. python -m pip install docutils pygments pypiwin32 kivy_deps.sdl2==0.1.* kivy_deps.glew==0.1.*
python -m pip install kivy_deps.gstreamer==0.1.*
python -m pip install kivy_deps.angle==0.1.*
python -m pip install kivy==1.11.1
Checked everything, reinstalled etc. still no luck, but after using the -d (debug) option the errormessage expanded and suggested there might be another sdl2.dll in the path. After some trial and error I found one in windows\system32. Moving it out of the way made the error disappear.
I tried running the app in virtual environment and it worked.
Lets be real, use a virtual environment. Kivys documentation even highly recommends this aswell.
Repeating this step always gives me a runnable kivy-example First uninstall all kivy-related librarys you already have installed.
python -m pip uninstall -y kivy.deps.glew kivy.deps.gstreamer kivy.deps.sdl2 kivy.deps.angle
Upgrade pip, wheel, setuptools and setuptools
python -m pip install --upgrade pip wheel setuptools virtualenv
Create a venv in your project folder and activate it
python -m virtualenv venv venv\Scripts\activate
(on bash put "source" in front.)
Install kivys dependecies to your virtual environment.
python -m pip install docutils pygments pypiwin32 kivy_deps.sdl2==0.1.*
If you want video and audio support:
python -m pip install kivy_deps.gstreamer==0.1.*
On Python 3.5+ you can opt to use Angle astead glew, so do either/or:
python -m pip install kivy_deps.glew==0.1.* python -m pip install kivy_deps.angle==0.1.*
Install kivy
python -m pip install kivy==1.11.1 kivy_examples==1.11.1
After that do
python venv\share\kivy-examples\demo\showcase\main.py

If it still errors with "[CRITICAL] [App ] Unable to get a Window, abort.", CMD:
set USE_SDL2=1 set USE_GSTREAMER=1
Terminal:
export USE_SDL2=1 export USE_GSTREAMER=1
Thank you so much, it did work ! I just added the "original" python interpreter installed in C:\\Python27\\python.exe in Project Interpreter list and selected it like you said.
Best regards,
Just impossible, tried all that with 3.7 64 on win10, same exception...This thing just doesn't work, guess I will have to try Beeware instead. Disappointing
Instead run in your IDE, try to run the program in cmd or powershell by python <filename>
. It works for me.
