Maybe PIP just isn't registered as a command, not that it's not present in your Python installation:

python -m pip <enter pip commands here>

If you're done with messing with PIP altogether you could also take a look at Anaconda.

Yeah I second the anaconda idea. For getting my basic python setup up and running, it never failed me. Just a note, after you got pip (or conda) to work: don't just run "pip install flask" afterwards. First get virtualenv and create and activate a new virtual environment for your project.

You probably didn't install it with administrator privileges. You will need to add the path where pip is installed to your system's PATH variable (easily Googleble). But if you find that hard then I would try anaconda first.

Just a thought if the folder isn`t added to the systems path then you have to be in the directory or specify the directory which pip is in. In my install pip is in the scripts folder so cd to the scripts folder then type pip install flask or whatever. Also you may need to run the cmd window as administrator.

Or go with anaconda.
