WARNING: Ignoring invalid distribution -ip (c:\python39\lib\site-packages) How do I fix this and what does it mean? [duplicate]

Question

I keep getting this error:

WARNING: Ignoring invalid distribution -ip (c:\python39\lib\site-packages)

How do I fix this and what does it mean?

I have anaconda and Python installed. I use Jupyter Notebook and Python in VS Code.

This is in Git Bash command line.

My operating system is Windows 10 Home.

I have Python 3.9.2 and pip 21.1.1.

Answer 1

So apparently some folder/package named -ip + some numbers was installed at c:\python39\lib\site-packages.

Once I checked my site packages at the link it provided and removed the ip(random numbers) package it stopped giving me errors.
