Python pip is not working

Question

I am using Python 3.4 on Windows 7.

I need to install the six module, I have pip installed on my C.

The problem is, whenever I type pip on my cmd nothing happens.
I made sure that my environment variables are set correctly but I am still facing the problem.

I turned out that uninstalling python and reinstalling it is the best way to solve this mystery, thank you guys for helping as possible — Ali.Wassouf, Oct 27 '15 at 20:39

Try adding the pip executable to your path.

Show us your path variable, you can see it by typing this at a cmd prompt:

echo %PATH%

Do you know where pip is actually installed? On my Windows VM it's here:

c:\Python34\Scripts\pip.exe

That would mean you need C:\Python34\Scripts in your path.

Just download this file https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py and then run python get-pip.py.

He claims it's already installed. Also, I don't believe that script modifies your system path on windows, but I could be wrong. Unless he installed python from source, pip is included with python 3.4. – jgritty Oct 26 '15 at 23:24

In my case, to know my pip version, I have to do it as follows

py -m pip --version
