When installing meilisearch using pip, using the following command:

pip3 install meilisearch

gives the following error:

bash: /c/Users/NASA/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python39/Scripts/pip3:  Permission denied

How can it be solved?

This is a permissions-error, and is common if you are not logged in from an account with admin-privileges.
One possible way is to install for your account only, by using

pip install meilisearch --account

Another possible workaround is to use a Virtual-Environment.

  • `pip install` doesn't have [option](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/cli/pip_install/#options) `--account`. Not to say that the question is about accessing Windows `pip` from WSL. – phd May 15 '21 at 07:45
