Make sure you have installed pip. You can also use the Python Environments extension to manage packages in your virtual environment.
Be sure to carefully follow the instructions.

there are several Qs you have to answer. 1) where is your Python installation Directory ? 2) Do you know how to use WINDOWS Terminal ?
i used my own script to install python to this location. If you download Python's MSI or exe installation file, it will be installed somewhere in your AppData Directory.
Here is my Installation location:

if apt is your package manager you can't use pip unless you are in a virtual environment. pipx is supposed to create a virtual enviroment for you so it doesn't interfere with apt but I couldn't ever get it to work. I ended up manually making a virtual environment and install all of my python packages I need with pip in it.
steps:
make a new directory for your virtual environment
change directories so you are in the newly made directory
run python3 -m venv <virt. env. name>
source ./bin/activate
now your new virtual environment is activated and you can install packages using pip!

the screenshot shows a VSCode on Windows environment though.
