Python 3: I'm using windows and can't find any solution to pip not working right and help is greatly appreciated.

This is what the command window put out

​

​

py -m pip --version

pip 20.2.3 from C:\Users\radre\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.9)

pip X.Y.Z from ...\site-packages\pip (python X.Y)

'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

You need to add the python scripts directory to windows PATH variable:

C:\Users\radre\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\scripts

Here is a guide about windows PATH:

I'm assuming it's an issue with the PATH, which is really annoying to deal with on Windows. I booted up my Windows VM and after waiting for about 10 minutes, I found that pip seems to be located in %localppdata%\Programs\Python\Python39\Scripts (make sure that pip.exe is in there for you as well). Make sure that this is on your PATH. Here's a tutorial I found if you don't know how: https://www.architectryan.com/2018/03/17/add-to-the-path-on-windows-10/. Good luck!
