My pip is broken on Windows, how can I fix it?
(3 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
C:\WINDOWS\system32>python -m pip install -U --force pip
C:\Python39\python.exe: No module named pip
I broke my pip install trying to update it and am unsure how to fix it
I think you accidentally delete pip or did not install it, my suggestion is to reinstall pip by
Download get-pip.py and "Save As" the file using right-click.
Open a command prompt as an administrator
cd to the path where you saved the file, in my case
python get-pip.py
cd C:\Users\xyz\Downloads> then type python get-pip.py. It will install all required packages, such as wheel and pip.
To check if it was installed correctly, type pip --version in the command line.
Before downloading pip firstly check pip already installed or not. For checking open cmd type
pip help
if it responce than pip installed already.
For downloading pip then, run the following command in cmd to download the get-pip.py file:
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
To install PIP run the following command in cmd :
python get-pip.py
for confirming whether pip installed or not than again type
pip help
if it responce than pip successfully installed.
To check the current version of PIP,enter the following in the cmd:
pip --version
To upgrade PIP on Windows, enter the following in the cmd:
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
This command uninstalls the old version of PIP and then installs the most current version of PIP.
It seems like you do not have pip module in your system.
I recommend to download python again and you will have the newest possible version of pip. Or you may use "pip help" command
I am trying to install pip on my Windows 10 system. I got the get-pip.py file and ran the command
python get-pip.py
Here's a snapshot of the terminal

Why is this happening? It JUST said pip installed successfully and when I try to see the version to check if its installed, it says No module named 'pip'
Also, I have included C:/Program/Files/Python/python3/Scripts in the PATH variable.
Please help ! ! ! !
After running python get-pip.py, python install-dir will increase dir Lib\site-packages
Method 1. try to cp the pip dir into the python install-dir
or
Method 2. change file python3x._pth in python install-dir，append this line Lib\site-packages
run pip, problem will be solved
Open python37._pth file which is in the root folder of python.
Add Lib\site-packages line.
All will work fine.
The following steps may be followed to install pip on windows:
Download python file: get-pip.py (nearly 1.8 MB size) from link: https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/#installing-with-get-pip-py and save it to your desktop
Go to command prompt and Check your python version: c:> python
From command prompt run: c:> python get-pip.py
The above will install new version of pip. check by running C:> pip --version
You may also update setup tools - C:> pip install --upgrade pip setuptools
I suggest referring to the pip homepage: https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installation/
It describes all methods on how to install pip.
I am a win10 user so the solution was to run this command:
py -m ensurepip --upgrade
Use following commands can be used to find out whether pip extraction path is included or not.
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path
if Lib\site-packages path is not included then update file python37._pth.
Run the command again and path should be visible.
pip install <module name> worked successfully for me after this.
Thanks #demianzhang for the hint or even for the solution.
I found files in my Windows lib\site-packages directory
~ip
~ip-20-0.2.dist-info
Renamed them to
pip
pip-20-0.2.dist-info
And it worked to run pip install --upgrade pip
If your Python environment does not have pip installed, there are 2
mechanisms to install pip supported directly by pip’s maintainers:
ensurepip
get-pip.py
Method 1
ensurepip
Python comes with an ensurepip module1, which can install
pip in a Python environment.
Linux: python -m ensurepip --upgrade
MacOc: python -m ensurepip --upgrade
Windows: py -m ensurepip --upgrade
Method 2
get-pip.py This is a Python script that uses some bootstrapping logic
to install pip.
Download the script, from https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py.
Open a terminal/command prompt, cd to the folder containing the
get-pip.py file and run:
Linux: python get-pip.py
MacOc: python get-pip.py
Windows: py get-pip.py
Above installation commands are in official python link.
Optional
After successful installation of pip you might want to upgrade pip to latest version
for Linux and MacOs python -m pip install --upgrade pip
for Windows : py -m pip install --upgrade pip
py -m ensurepip --upgrade
this is work for me official docs link you can try multiple methods based on os.

I solved my problem by opening my shell as admin
Getting syntax error while running the following command on terminal:
pip install gTTS
File "", line 1
pip install gTTS
^
That's not how you run pip... You run it from the system shell like this
> pip install gTTS
or
> python -m pip install gTTS
If you want to run it from inside a script, or a python shell you do it like this
import pip
def install(package):
pip.main(['install', package])
# Example
if __name__ == '__main__':
install('gTTS')
If you had installed Anaconda IDE, the installation gets much hassle-free as it eliminates the headaches of trying to figure out which version/release of package X is compatible with which version/release of package Y.
Just open the Conda prompt shell and type the following command and hit Enter:
pip install gTTS
Voila! The package will be successfully installed in a jiffy!
I mentioned in my reply to sehafoc I tried running the command from shell and started getting another error "no module name pip", so I installed pip by running following commands:
Downloaded pip script
$ curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py > get-pip.py
Executed the pip script by running following command
$ sudo python get-pip.py
Install gTTS module
$ sudo pip install gTTS
If you can't use your pip on your cmd. But first thing, you have to install your pip with syntax:
python -m install pip
And don't forget to add python to your path, and then type this syntax to your cmd
python -m pip install gtts
and your gtts will dowloaded automatically
I'm trying to install bayespy on enthought canopy and have read through all the documentation and cannot figure it out. I import pip and then run the following code (I have tried many variations on this too) :
pip install <bayespy>
It keeps coming back with an error message. Do I need to specify the file path to bayespy possibly?
Thanks in advance,
Max
Edit :
pip install <bayespy>
File "<ipython-input-2-bb1febf67aaf>", line 1
pip install <bayespy>
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
The most basic usage of "pip" is as a command-line tool. Try this from the command prompt (NOT within a Python shell):
pip install bayespy
or perhaps
sudo pip install bayespy
First: BayesPy requires Python 3.
Try This:
yourMachine> sudo pip3 install bayespy
Not this at python prompt: >>> sudo pip3 install bayespy
I tried importing requests:
import requests
But I get an error:
ImportError: No module named requests
Requests is not a built in module (does not come with the default python installation), so you will have to install it:
OSX/Linux
Python 2: sudo pip install requests
Python 3: sudo pip3 install requests
if you have pip installed (pip is the package installer for python and should come by default with your python installation).
If pip is installed but not in your path you can use python -m pip install requests (or python3 -m pip install requests for python3)
Alternatively you can also use sudo easy_install -U requests if you have easy_install installed.
Linux
Alternatively you can use your systems package manager:
For centos: sudo yum install python-requests
For Debian/Ubuntu Python2: sudo apt-get install python-requests
For Debian/Ubuntu Python3: sudo apt-get install python3-requests
Windows
Use pip install requests (or pip3 install requests for python3) if you have pip installed and Pip.exe added to the Path Environment Variable. If pip is installed but not in your path you can use python -m pip install requests (or python3 -m pip install requests for python3)
Alternatively from a cmd prompt, use > Path\easy_install.exe requests, where Path is your Python*\Scripts folder, if it was installed. (For example: C:\Python32\Scripts)
If you manually want to add a library to a windows machine, you can download the compressed library, uncompress it, and then place it into the Lib\site-packages folder of your python path. (For example: C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages)
From Source (Universal)
For any missing library, the source is usually available at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/. You can download requests here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests
On mac osx and windows, after downloading the source zip, uncompress it and from the termiminal/cmd run python setup.py install from the uncompressed dir.
(source)
It's not obvious to me which version of Python you are using.
If it's Python 3, a solution would be sudo pip3 install requests
To install requests module on Debian/Ubuntu for Python2:
$ sudo apt-get install python-requests
And for Python3 the command is:
$ sudo apt-get install python3-requests
Brew users can use reference below,
command to install requests:
python3 -m pip install requests
Homebrew and Python
pip is the package installer for Python and you need the package requests.
This may be a liittle bit too late but this command can be run even when pip path is not set. I am using Python 3.7 running on Windows 10 and this is the command
py -m pip install requests
and you can also replace 'requests' with any other uninstalled library
If you are using Ubuntu, there is need to install requests
run this command:
pip install requests
if you face permission denied error, use sudo before command:
sudo pip install requests
In my case requests was already installed, but needed an upgrade. The following command did the trick
$ sudo pip install requests --upgrade
On OSX, the command will depend on the flavour of python installation you have.
Python 2.x - Default
sudo pip install requests
Python 3.x
sudo pip3 install requests
On Windows Open Command Line
pip3 install requests
I had the same issue, so I copied the folder named "requests" from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests#downloadsrequests download to
"/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages".
Now when you use: import requests, it should work fine.
In the terminal/command-line:
pip install requests
then use it inside your Python script by:
import requests
or else if you want to use pycharm IDE to install a package:
go to setting from File in menu
next go to Python interpreter
click on pip
search for requests package and install it
Adding Third-party Packages to the Application
Follow this link
https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/libraries27?hl=en#vendoring
step1 : Have a file by named a file named appengine_config.py in the root of your project, then add these lines:
from google.appengine.ext import vendor
Add any libraries installed in the "lib" folder.
vendor.add('lib')
Step 2: create a directory and name it "lib" under root directory of project.
step 3: use pip install -t lib requests
step 4 : deploy to app engine.
Try sudo apt-get install python-requests.
This worked for me.
If you are using anaconda as your python package manager, execute the following:
conda install -c anaconda requests
Installing requests through pip didn't help me.
The only thing that worked for me:
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
python get-pip.py
pip install requests
Facing the same issue but unable to fix it with the above solution, so I tried this way and it worked:-
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/pip/2.7/get-pip.py --output get-pip.py
sudo python2 get-pip.py
python -m pip install requests
For windows just give path as cd and path to the "Scripts" of python and then execute the command easy_install.exe requests.Then try import requests...
I have had this issue a couple times in the past few months. I haven't seen a good solution for fedora systems posted, so here's yet another solution. I'm using RHEL7, and I discovered the following:
If you have urllib3 installed via pip, and requests installed via yum you will have issues, even if you have the correct packages installed. The same will apply if you have urllib3 installed via yum, and requests installed via pip. Here's what I did to fix the issue:
sudo pip uninstall requests
sudo pip uninstall urllib3
sudo yum remove python-urllib3
sudo yum remove python-requests
(confirm that all those libraries have been removed)
sudo yum install python-urllib3
sudo yum install python-requests
Just be aware that this will only work for systems that are running Fedora, Redhat, or CentOS.

Python Common installation issues
These commands are also useful if Homebrew screws up your path on macOS.
python -m pip install requests
or
python3 -m pip install requests
Multiple versions of Python installed in parallel?
You must make sure your requests module is not being installed in a more recent version of python.
When using python 3.7, run your python file like:
python3 myfile.py
or enter python interactive mode with:
python3
Yes, this works for me. Run your file like this: python3 file.py
I have installed python2.7 and python3.6
Open Command Line to ~/.bash_profile I find that #Setting PATH for Python 3.6 , So
I change the path to PATH="/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.13/bin:${PATH}" ,
(please make sure your python2.7's path) ,then save.
It works for me.
if you want request import on windows:
pip install request
then beautifulsoup4 for:
pip3 install beautifulsoup4
Please try the following. If one doesn't work, skip to the next method.
pip install requests
or...
pip3 install requests
or...
python -m pip install requests
or...
python3 -m pip install requests
or...
python -m pip3 install requests
If all of these don't work, please leave a comment!
How does this work? Depending on the operating system you currently use, the pip command may vary or not work on some. These are the commands you may try in order for a fix.
In case you hit pip install requests and had an output massage of Requirement already satisfied but yet you still get the error: ImportError: No module named requests.
This is likely to happen when you find yourself in a different interpreter/virtual environment.
You can copy and append the path of the module into your working environment.
Note: This path usually comes with the message Requirement already satisfied
Before import requests, you should import sys and then append the copied path.
Example:
Command Prompt:
pip install requests
Output:
Requirement already satisfied: requests in /usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages
import sys
sys.path.append("/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages")
import requests
I solved this problem.You can try this method.
In this file '.bash_profile', Add codes like alias python=/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7
Type this command in Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Linux/macOS):
pip install requests
My answer is basically the same as #pi-k. In my case my program worked locally but failed to build on QA servers. (I suspect devops had older versions of the package blocked and my version must have been too out-of-date) I just decided to upgrade everything
$ pip install pip-review
$ pip-review --local --interactive
You get an import error because requests are not a built-in module instead, it is created by someone else and you need to install the requests.
use the following command on your terminal then it will work correctly.
pip install requests
Install python requests library and this error will be solved.
I found that my issue was VSCode was reading from the wrong Python Interpreter. This youtube tutorial solved it for me.
If you are using anaconda
step 1:
where python
step 2:
open anaconda prompt in administrator mode
step 3:
cd <python path>
step 4:
install the package in this location
