I have checked that I have python 3.8 installed on my windows10 machine. I'm trying to install a package with pip but the terminal tells me '[pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.]
I understand that Python versions above 3.4 have pip pre-installed, so why am I getting this error message?
The current version of pip works on: Windows, Linux and MacOS. CPython 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10 and latest PyPy3.
if you installed any standard python distribution then PIP already comes with Python and there is no need to install it.
One of the most common problems with running Python tools like pip is the “not on PATH” error. This means that Python cannot find the tool you're trying to run in your current directory. In most cases, you'll need to navigate to the directory in which the tool is installed before you can run the command to launch it.
PIP is a package manager for Python packages, or modules if you like. Note: If you have Python version 3.4 or later, PIP is included by default.
Try accessing pip in the following way:
python -m pip --version
