I'm having problems installing modules using pip in my Python 3.6. I've watched countless videos and read numerous posts about it amounting to nothing but frustration.
When I use pip in the CMD, it says:
C:\WINDOWS\system32>pip
'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Some information from official python documentation page
- pip is the preferred installer program. Starting with Python 3.4, it is included by default with the Python binary installers.
So, when you install Python 3.6 pip already bundled. pip is not windows executable, so you should use pip by following command
python -m pip install SomePackage 
PATH in command prompt that opened before installationPossible duplicate here. In Python 3.6 documentation, it says that it is possible pip is not installed by default. The potential fix is:
python -m ensurepip --default-pip 
Add the following to $PATH if they are not there:
C:\Users\YOUR_USER\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32\Scripts\ C:\Users\YOUR_USER\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32\ or Python36-64 if you installed the 64bit version.
