You can switch virtual environments using the command line. First, activate the environment you want to switch to. For example, if you're using venv, you can activate it with source /path/to/venv/bin/activate on macOS/Linux or .\path\to\venv\Scripts\activate on Windows.

What if I want to deactivate the current environment?

To deactivate the current virtual environment, simply run the command deactivate in your terminal. This will return you to the system's default Python environment.

Can I create a new virtual environment while in another one?

Yes, you can create a new virtual environment while another one is activated. Just run the command python -m venv new_env_name to create a new environment.

Is there a way to list all my virtual environments?

You can list your virtual environments by checking the directories where you typically create them. If you're using virtualenvwrapper, you can use the command workon to see all your environments.
