python - Is it necessary to stop all python scripts when upgrading python packages?

Question

If a python script using package X is running and package X is being upgraded, will it lead to permission problem that will cause the upgrade to fail?

I am using Windows 10, Anaconda v5.2 running on python v3.6 and conda to do update of packages.

我刚才尝试了一个简单的测试。我运行了一个永远循环的python脚本。它使用 numpy。然后，我尝试安装需要降级 numpy 版本的 python 包（pytorch）。当脚本运行时，安装失败并出现一些“无权限”错误消息。我停止脚本后，安装成功。

根据本次实验的结果，结论是建议在进行python包升级时停止所有python脚本。
