I am new to Stack Overflow, so please forgive me for any errors.
I am trying to install Jupyter on my Windows 10 machine using command prompt. I have already installed Python(3.8.0).
I receive the following error at the end:
The package setup script has attempted to modify files on your system
that are not within the EasyInstall build area, and has been aborted.
This package cannot be safely installed by EasyInstall, and may not
support alternate installation locations even if you run its setup
script by hand. Please inform the package's author and the EasyInstall
maintainers to find out if a fix or workaround is available.
The installation starts, download the necessary file but suddenly there's a long list of error with the above message at the end. I have tried running command prompt as administrator but that also fails.
I have tried executing following commands for installation but nothing works:
> pip install jupyter
> python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
python3 -m pip install jupyter
> pip install jupyterlab
Can someone tell me why this is happening? And how do I solve it?
Thank You!
I am on Windows 10, and using Pyhton 3.8. Running first
pip install setuptools --upgrade
and then
pip install notebook
worked for me quite well. Thanks to #roberto

I am doing this project where i need to install a package called Twint.
I want to install this package and use it's commands in my VS Code.
What happends when i for example type this in my Windows CMD?
pip3 install --user --upgrade git+https://github.com/twintproject/twint.git#origin/master#egg=twint
Because i can't type this in my VS code terminal, where i usually install packages with pip.
It will return an error that says ERROR: Cannot find command 'git' - do you have 'git' installed and in your PATH?''
Now if i run this in my Windows Command it seems that i can't directly import the package in VS code?
Can anyone help me out with this confusion, where does the files get stored and how do i create good habbits around installing packages?
Hope someone understands what im struggeling with here.

It is often the case that computers have more than one version of python installed and that editors like VS code use a different version than pip uses on the command line. pip installs packages where the version of python it is linked to expects them to be, but VScode doesn't know to look there.
It sounds like you have git installed where pip installs things, so you can upgrade from the command line without issue, but there's no installation of git where VScode is looking, so there's nothing to upgrade.
You either need to find where pip installs things and add it to the $PATH VScode uses, or try running a variation of python -m pip install --user git (specifying a specific url, or other things, as needed) from within VScode, which will ensure the package gets installed in a place that VScode looks for packages.
Download and Install git in your windows from here:
https://git-scm.com/download/win
Then add its installation bin path to your windows's environment path. Then you will find the git command at the command prompt globally.
This may solve you problem.
I started having this issue a while ago, when I used pip to install new things. Every time I try to use pip, my command line says: failed to create process. I have checked the system PATH for my Python folder and it seems to be correct. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling pip several times. I reinstalled Python as well.
Pip commands do work when I put the full path to pip in the command, but I would rather just type pip whatever than pip "C:/path to it" or whatever. Anyone got any fixes or ideas?
I have checked other places where this was answered, and none of the suggestions helped.
Try this & again check path in environment
python -m pip install --upgrade pip --force-reinstall
I had a massive crash today and lost a lot of work. I couldn't start Spyder after many attempts; even tried 'spyder --reset'. Nothing worked. I decided to download a new version of Anaconda and start over. Now, I'm trying to figure out why I can't run packages.
If I run this: import pyodbc
I get this: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pyodbc'
So, I go to the command prompt to pip install pyodbc...and apparently it's already installed...
When I navigate to that path, I can see the package
...but Spyder is still telling me it's not installed. What's an easy fix for this?
i had similar crash problems on Windows 10, what I learned is that I had several non-conda versions of python on my PC, and I used 'pip install' in my environments so it messed up with conda packages and it stop working.
What I did is that I uninstalled anaconda and non-conda python, cleaned up registry from python mentions, installed fresh new miniconda, and 'conda install spyder' in the new env, conda have created new folder
C:\Users\~~~\.spyder-py3\
Inside of it I found "spyder.ini" file, where incorrect variable was set:
"spyder_pythonpath = "
I changed it from
['C:\Users\~~~\anaconda3\pkgs',
'C:\Users\~~~\anaconda3\envs']
to
['C:\Users\~~~\miniconda3\pkgs',
'C:\Users\~~~\miniconda3\envs']
Please Upvote it take so much time
First open Spyder and click Tools --> Open command prompt.
You should see the Command Window appear in the bottom right of your screen.
Here we install the Python package seaborn as an example.
# In the command line, type pip install seaborn
C:\Users\your_username\Documents\Python Scripts>pip install seaborn
This will install seaborn on your machine.
Note:
To upgrade the pip version on Windows, type python -m pip install --upgrade pip on the command line.
On Windows, all of your Python packages can be found in the directory of C:\Anaconda2\Lib\site-packages if you use the default path when you install Anaconda.
To upgrade the pip version on OS X, type pip install --upgrade pip on the command line.
I am trying to install Pandas with Pip and am running into some strange issues. Command prompt reported that pip is an unrecognized command. I thought that was strange, but decided to definitively remedy that by installing pip with the following commands:
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
python get-pip.py
I received the report that an existing version of pip was found, uninstalled, and the new version was installed. I then proceeded to run
pip install pandas
And I was informed that 'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I then added to the path environment and the issue is still persisting. It's worth noting that I installed Python 3.6 by installing Anaconda. What am I missing here?
The pip command is not found because it's not in your path.
You should add the following to your PATH environment variable:
;%PYTHON_HOME%\;%PYTHON_HOME%\Scripts\
A simple Google search should help you find how to change environment variables for you version of Windows.
For example, see this page from the Java documentation.
Try the following
C:\Users\Username>cd C:\Python27\Scripts
C:\Python27\Scripts>pip freeze
If you're using a different Python version, replace Python27, with your version of Python.
On windows you can use !pip install pandas in your Python program without having to open the windows/anaconda prompt.
But as others said, pip is not in your active directory and you would have to open the anaconda prompt or go to the library where pip is installed
I have installed pip on my Windows 10 laptop the same way I have been doing for the past few years (via python -m pip install -U pip setuptools). The weird part is, on my laptop, Pip causes no output. It just causes a blank line. For example
C:\Users\...> pip install hvjkdfghfdkghdkgf
C:\Users\...>
When it should throw an error that the module hvjkdfghfdkghdkgf does not exist.
I have read that you must edit the configuration file, but when I checked where the configuration file should be, there was none to be found. I tried creating the configuration file, and there was no change (I do not remember where, as this was over a month ago, sorry).
I have tried pip install ___ -v, and pip install ___ --verbose as found on the pip website: https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/installing-packages/#install-pip-setuptools-and-wheel, and still no luck.
Thanks in advance.
[EDIT]
By the way, It still installs modules, I just want to be able to see the progress of the installation, and if the module was even found.
I uninstalled pip:
python -m pip uninstall pip setuptools
And then followed the instructions here:
https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/#do-i-need-to-install-pip
By first downloading setup.py from https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py, and running > python get-pip.py in the command line in the directory where the python file is saved.
Thanks anyways.
