I'm having trouble getting python to work on my Windows 10 computer. I downloaded 3.5.2 off the website and ran the exe, but when I try to use
pip install nltk
So I copied and ran get-pip.py, but it still tells me "pip" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
python -m pip install pip
tells me that python is also not recognized. What should I do?
EDIT: Have tried reinstalling python, made sure the box to install pip was checked. Tried re-running the pip command in the Python command line (the one titled Python 3.5 (32-bit)) and it gave me an invalid syntax error on the word install.
When installing "the exe", make sure that you tick the checkbox labelled "Add Python 3.5 to PATH". That will solve the issue you mentionned.

I was trying to install the packages to start using the Atom environment. When I create a .py file and write anything in it I get the following error
It says: "python" is not recognized as an internal or external command,
program or executable batch file.
When I use the Windows console, I only run the python with the py command.
I guess that's the problem but I don't know how to correct it in the package.
I would appreciate the help.
the problem with your system python does not install so you need to install python on your system. download and install phttps://www.python.org/downloads/windows/
I check with ubuntu19.4 with python installed
I am having a nightmare tonight, I want to start learning some Django but I am running into quite a few problems while installing it.
I am following these tutorials - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmljXZIypDc / https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEcWRk9w0t0
I installed Python 3.7.2 and confirmed the installation by typing 'python --version' into Terminal/Command Prompt.
I typed 'pip --version' into CMD and got this message in return "'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
this is where I am stuck, I cannot continue any longer without completing this step, could anyone tell me where I am going wrong?
Thank you
edit: looks like it's a path issue, does anyone know how to do the following: how to I do this :
"Then add C:\Python37\Scripts path to your environment variable. Assumes that there is a Python37 folder in your C drive, that folder name may varied according to the installed python version Now you can install python packages by running pip install awesome_package_name"
You need to uninstall python and when you're installing python again , check on add python to PATH.It will remove the error
Can you be more specific as to which OS you are using? You can use pip also like python -m pip .... The -m part loads a python module It might just not be installed since it is a python module. On linux, for example you have to install pip separately (would be sudo apt-get install python-pip).
Run pip install django from windows command prompt instead of python shell.

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 am trying to install Pillow-2.7.0-cp27-none-win32.whl
I read it is necessary to use the pip to install such file extension.
So I downloaded python 2.7 which already comes with pip installed.
However when I try to execute the following command:
pip install Pillow-2.7.0-cp27-none-win32.whl
command prompt returns:
pip is not recognized as an internal or external command
EDIT
I tried the following solution:
'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command
But the message result is the same
You need to add the directory containing pip.exe to your PATH. It is usually found in C:\<PythonInstallDir>\Scripts, probably C:\Python27\Scripts unless the installation method has changed recently. The method of editing your PATH varies slightly amongst Windows versions, so Google it with your particular version if you don't already know how to do it.
You can try using py -m pip install pillow in the Command Prompt/PowerShell
I am trying to install some python packages from the python shell but I get syntaxError. I am using python 3.4.3 which supposed to come with pip installed and I can see pip3 pip3.4, pip, easy_install, and easy_install-3.4 under scripts but whenever I run the command in the shell I get syntax error.
Am I not supposed to use the python shell for package installation? I am using windows 8.1 if that would explain something. I tried these commands:
pip install packageName --- got syntaxError with this message:File '' line 1, pip install(with a mark at last l in install). easy_install packageName generated the same error message but with the mark at the last letter in the packagename, i double checked all spellings but I can't seem to see what the problem is. How can I install packages?
Am I not supposed to use the python shell for package installation?
No. Commands like pip are to be run on the operating system command line (i.e., the "DOS prompt" on Windows).
No you are just to use the Windows terminal for pip package installations.
If that does not work, ensure that you have installed Python properly following this guide Here.
Click Windows(button)+R then type cmd. In there type pip -V, what version does it show?
If you get pip 6.1.1 from C:\Python32\lib\site-packages <python 3.4> (depending on your directory) then you're good, simply make your installations from there.
