Setup:
PC Windows 10 -- Have administrator rights
Python version 3.10.8
pip version 22.3
cmd used:
pip install pygal_maps_world
I am trying to pip install pygal_maps_world (have tried multiple variations of pip install) and constantly get:
ERROR: Error [WinError 5] Access is denied while executing command python setup.py egg_info
and
ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [WinError 5] Access is denied
Check the permissions
I can install other packages using pip, just not this particular package.
Any suggestions on how to get around this error?
Attempted: I have tried multiple variations of pip install following suggestions on here and other sites, and this is the only package I have not been able to install using pip. As I need it to complete some work, I need to install it.
Expected: pip install should install this like any other package

I would be grateful if I could get help in fixing this error.
You need to run the command prompt or terminal as an administrator. This will give you permission to install packages. And also you need to upgrade pip to the latest version - python -m pip install –upgrade pip in cmd or terminal.
And If this does not work for you then, you can try pip install --user pygame.
I got this from this post

I want to install pip3 install twint but I get the error:
ERROR: Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Library/Python/3.8'
Consider using the `--user` option or check the permissions.
what command do i need to type to install it under my user option?
would it be python -m pip3 install twint?
as suggested by pip, use --user: python3 -m pip install --user twint
it will install your package in your home (https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/user_guide/#user-installs)
as a better alternative, you can look into virtual environments
Try installing this using the Anaconda Navigator cmd. The installation did not work in Jupyter Notebook, but it did work in Anaconda Navigator cmd.
Trying to download dateutil to run a python script.
I've tried installing it via pip and pip3, but it appears to be calling the wrong python environment.
Used: pip install python-dateutil==1.4 and got the following:
ERROR: Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [('/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/dateutil/parser.pyc', '/private/var/folders/ff/f4w7vg7x3q9fm911gypt4h8r0000gn/T/pip-uninstall-SLYbJ2/parser.pyc', "[Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/private/var/folders/ff/f4w7vg7x3q9fm911gypt4h8r0000gn/T/pip-uninstall-SLYbJ2/parser.pyc'"), ('/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/dateutil/relativedelta.py', '/private/var/folders/ff/f4w7vg7x3q9fm911gypt4h8r0000gn/T/pip-uninstall-SLYbJ2/relativedelta.py', "[Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/private/var/folders/ff/
then ran pip3 install python-dateutil==1.4 and got no such module or directory
then ran pip install -U pip
Still unsuccessful
In the command line, run pip --version to validate the pip version and the path of your pip. Then, run where python to determine the path of your python.
You should see that the paths are similar to confirm that the python environments are correct. Then run pip install
However, I think this is a permission issue. You may want to run the command as an admin (e.g. sudo pip install).
If you don't have access to admin, try the following commands which install on your user account only:
pip3 install --user package-name
pip install --user package-name
I am on a windows 10 system, and I recently installed the latest version of python python 3.7.0. I enable the PATH and tried to install pygame through CMD.
I first type in pip, that works as normal.
I then try pip install pygame
Now, this is where the problem arises.
CMD comes up with this:

You are using pip version 10.0.1, however version 18.0 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'python -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.
So I type in python -m pip install --upgrade and then this happens:

Why is it doing this?
Somebody please help me and thank you in advance.
"Access dienied" means that you don't have enough permissions to change the global setup of your Python installation.
Either open a cmd line with Adminstrator permissions, or better: learn how to use Python virtual environments: https://docs.python-guide.org/dev/virtualenvs/
