Unable to install pip of Python 3.7.4 on Windows 10

Question

I had installed Python 3.7.4, and it doesn't install pip.

Install Python with IDLE and obviously with pip. But when I want to install pip, it shows this error.

Traceback (most recent call last):

OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor

I am stuck and spent lots of hours. Any help will be appreciated.

What exactly action exactly gives you the posted stack trace? Something you called on command line? The press of some button? Please be more specific — Finomnis, Sep 07 '19 at 15:16
if you installed Python with `pip`, why do you want to install it again? can you call `python -m pip --version` in cmd/ps? — FObersteiner, Sep 07 '19 at 15:18
@Finomnis This stack trace is given when I try to install some package from PyPI. — Fahad Iqbal Khan, Sep 07 '19 at 15:21
@FahadIqbalKhan on command line? Please start without any python installed and then post all the steps you do to reach that error, including programs you install, commands you execute on the command line, etc. — Finomnis, Sep 07 '19 at 15:23
@MrFuppes I tried it and it shows me this error: C:\Python3.7.4\python.exe: No module named pip — Fahad Iqbal Khan, Sep 07 '19 at 15:24
@Finomnis I installed Python3.7.4 with custom installation and it's location is C:\Python3.7.4. Then on command line I verified it by "python" command. But when I want to import openpyxl by "pip install openpyxl" command, it give me the error. — Fahad Iqbal Khan, Sep 07 '19 at 15:26
@Fahad Please [edit] the question to add the missing info instead of using comments. — wjandrea, Sep 07 '19 at 15:26
@FahadIqbalKhan: the error is just "-"? nothing else? that's weird... but you can call Python in in cmd? — FObersteiner, Sep 07 '19 at 15:27
@MrFuppes The error is `C:\Python3.7.4\python.exe: No module named pip`. I think Fahad edited his comment. — wjandrea, Sep 07 '19 at 15:28
@Finomnis. I can't help you if you arent more specific. What python? The normal one from the python.org website? There one from Conda? — Finomnis, Sep 07 '19 at 15:29
Ok. First real attempt to solve this problem: Did you check "Add python to PATH" during install? If not, this should fix your problem (maybe). — Finomnis, Sep 07 '19 at 15:31
Also, installing packages directly is not the best way to do it. Instead, create a [virtualenv](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html). I this virtualenv, pip should be installed and working. — Finomnis, Sep 07 '19 at 15:34
Here is more information about VirtualEnvs on Windows: https://www.techcoil.com/blog/how-to-create-a-python-3-virtual-environment-in-windows-10/ — Finomnis, Sep 07 '19 at 15:35
@wjandrea - I see. So the Windows environment variable ´path` should be correct (path to Python installation included) as python.exe is called. Although virtual envs are the way to go if you go serious on development - `pip` should be there after the installation nevertheless... checked [this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32639074/why-am-i-getting-importerror-no-module-named-pip-right-after-installing-pip)? — FObersteiner, Sep 07 '19 at 15:43
@FahadIqbalKhan go to uninstall apps==> then click on python and u will get a option like Repair then see this, [image](https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/img_591a09e55df0e.png) select pip and python.exe to the path and after that it will work — sai Pavan Kumar, Sep 07 '19 at 15:49
