how to install Pip3 on windows 10?-CodePudding

I installed Python 3.10 today but when I try to run pip or pip3, the command prompt gives me an error. I tried following the instructions that the top answer in this question said. My complete path to the python interpreter is this:

C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\python3.exe

In the WindowsApps directory, I'm supposed to have a Scripts folder. Strangely enough, I don't. Can someone please help me?

CodePudding user response：

You can try python -m pip to use pip if it is installed.

If pip is not installed, you can always use python -m ensurepip --upgrade to install pip for your python installation.

CodePudding user response：

Check if pip3 is already installed

pip3 -v

if it is installed the output should be like that


C:\Python38\python.exe -m pip <command> [options]

Commands:

  install      Install packages.
