Whenever I try to use pip, using any command I get this:
Traceback (most recent call last):

I am on Windows 10, 64 bit, Python version 3.7.7.
I cannot use pip, how can I fix it?
You can run “pip install --upgrade pip” to install and use the new version of pip. To update pip2 or pip3 using this command, only replace the first pip with the pip version.
A “pip: command not found” error occurs when you fail to properly install the package installer for Python (pip) needed to run Python on your computer. To fix it, you will either need to re-install Python and check the box to add Python to your PATH or install pip on your command line.
If pip
is broken after an attempted upgrade to a newer version, try the following:
Download get-pip.py and "Save As" the file using right-click.
Open a command prompt as an administrator
cd
to the path where you saved the file, in my case
cd C:\Users\xyz\Downloads>
then type python get-pip.py
. It will install all required packages, such as wheel
and pip
.
To check if it installed correctly, type pip --version
in the command line.
Hope my answer helps someone. Happy coding. 🙂
