When I try to run pip in the Windows Command Prompt, pip -V works fine, but when I try to run it in PyCharm terminal I get 'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
My Path environmental variables are set for:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\Scripts\
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python37\Scripts\
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python37\
The main difference I can think of is that the PyCharm terminal and project opens on D:, and my path variables are set to C: but I don't know why that would affect it. I have recently uninstalled and reinstalled both PyCharm and Python (a previous version) if that helps, but I made it a point to not import any settings.
This is a potential duplicate of this question but it's also unresolved.

This error usually means there's a problem with the Python installation or the system variable PATH is not set up correctly. Try reinstalling Python and all its components to fix the problem. The easiest way is via the Python executable installer.
Open project settings (File > Settings...) (preferences on Mac) Project > Project Interpreter. Press the + button.
By default, PyCharm uses pip to manage project packages. For Conda environments you can use the conda package manager. In PyCharm, you can preview and manage packages in the Python Packages tool window and in the Python interpreter Settings/Preferences.
Ensure you can run pip from the command lineRun python get-pip.py . 2 This will install or upgrade pip. Additionally, it will install setuptools and wheel if they're not installed already. Be cautious if you're using a Python install that's managed by your operating system or another package manager.
Answer to my own question: when things don't make sense, try turning it off and on again. Problem was fixed with a restart.

Check your Preferences -> Project -> Python Interpreter settings:
(sorry for Mac screenshots and paths, but not near my Windows PC atm but should give general idea of a possible problem area and how to correct)
