Let's say you create a virtual environment for your Python project as below,
% cd ~/Desktop
% mkdir mypyproj
% cd mypyproj
% virtualenv mypyproj_venv
created virtual environment CPython3.11.4.final.0-64 in 258ms
Now to activate this virtual environment you run the below command,
Windows: mypyproj_venv\Scripts\activate
Linux/macOS
source mypyproj_venv/bin/activate
Once the virtual environment is active you will see your prompt something like the below,
(mypyproj_venv) Code2care@Mac %
Now to exit or deactivate the virtualenv simply type deactivate on the prompt.
deactivate
And you should be out of it!
