    How about a traceback? An error message? Literally any more information would help. We can't help you if we can't find out what the problem actually is. Commented Jul 7, 2015 at 22:38
  • ....I wasn't aware that /usr/ existed on Windows 7. Actually, I'm pretty bloody sure it doesn't :P Have you considered leaving out that argument and just running virtualenv [name_of_virtual_environment]? Commented Jul 7, 2015 at 22:43

    Piggybacking off of @NightShadeQueen, maybe the problem is you're supposed to be doing this in a cygwin shell? Commented Jul 7, 2015 at 23:05
  • Just save yourself some trouble and don't do it in Windows. I know this is not a proper answer, but it wasn't a proper question either. Console things don't work properly on Windows. They just don't. I worked with python for 8 years, and I'd be terrified to have to get anything working on Windows. Get virtualbox, install ubuntu or whatever, it's free and really easy.
