I guess there is a problem with versions, but don't know exactly what is it.

On version 1.8.6 everything is ok, but when I try to use

from django.urls import path, include

I see that there is no django.urls in this version.

So I'd like to use the latest version and will be grateful, if you can help me!

Python version:

Python 3.6.0a4

It seems that you use an unofficial version of django. Hello, try this first, dont remove anything leave pip do it for you:

pip install -U django

Now After that rerun startproject command line
