python - pip install

Initially after the installation of python 3.9.5, I have checked that the pip is not installed by default in the python39\Scripts folder.

C:\Users\Srinanda\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Scripts\

Need to do following steps to install the pip:

Step 1: Check if Pip is Already Installed

Pip is installed by default on many newer Python builds. To check and see if it is already installed on our system, open a command prompt and type the following command.

pip help

If Pip is installed, you will receive a message explaining how to use the program. If Pip is not installed, you will get an error message stating that the program is not found.

Step 2: Confirm that Python is installed.

The simplest way to test for a Python installation on your Windows server is to open a command prompt. Once a command prompt window opens, type python and press Enter. If Python is installed correctly, you should see output similar to what is shown below.

Python 3.9.5 (tags/v3.9.5:0a7dcbd, May  3 2021, 17:27:52) [MSC v.1928 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>>.

If you receive a message like:

Python is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Python is either not installed or the system variable path has not been set. You will need to either launch Python from the folder in which it is installed or adjust your system variables to allow Python to be launched from any location.

Step 3: Installing Pip on Windows

Once you have confirmed that Python is installed correctly, we can proceed with installing Pip.

Download get-pip.py file and store it in the same directory as python is installed.
C:\Users\Srinanda\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39


Change the current path of the directory in the command line to the path of the directory where the above file exists.
cd C:\Users\Srinanda\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39

Run the following command:

python get-pip.py

pip files will be store here 

C:\Users\Srinanda\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Scripts


Step4: Add this path to system environment path if not added.

This PC - right click on it - Properties - advance system settings - Environment variables - path - edit and append  with ";C:\Users\Srinanda\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Scripts"

Step 4: Verify Installation and Check the Pip Version

We can now verify that Pip was installed correctly by opening a command prompt and entering the following command.

pip -V

You should see output similar to the following:

C:\Users\Srinanda\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39>pip -V

pip 21.1.2 from c:\users\srinanda\appdata\local\programs\python\python39\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.9)
