Since you also tried conda install, I am supsecting that you have anaconda or miniconda installed. pip and pip3 probably point to the python version managed by conda. However, your error message suggests that your script is being executed with a python version that is located at

C:\Users\zesha\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\

To install for that version of python specifically, you could try something like (might need to check that that is actual path to python.exe in that folder):

C:\Users\zesha\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\python.exe -m pip install sqlparse

Alternatively, run your script with the python that is managed by conda

import sqlparse ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sqlparse'
