There seem to be two possible explanations:

  • You have two python instances on your machine and the one where you typed print wx.version() is not the one where you installed wxPython classic
  • (more likely): You did at one point in time pip install wxPython which will currently install 4.0.0b2 msw (phoenix)

I do not know which version will be imported when you somehow manage to install classic and phoenix.

Recommendation: Uninstall from Windows setup 2.8.12.1 and continue with phoenix.

The only reason to use the completely outdated 2.8.12.1 (released somewhere in 2010/11) is if you have a huge app which cannot be ported to a newer wxPython.
