Python Pip Failing to work | What is going on?

Question

Summary

I've got the back end of a neat python program down, but I hate the gui options we have by default. Tkinter is unreliable, in my experience. And the turtle graphics thing would in no way benefit my project. So I looked into alternatives and Krivy came up. I followed the install step by step and I'm getting line after line of errors.

Windows 10

Python 3.6

Question

What is happening and how do I fix it? I've already looked at other questions and they are either from previous years or slightly different to my own problem. Below is the result of a pip install (or attempt).

Outcome

C:\Users\*>pip3.6 install pygyubu

P.S this isn't the true attempt, this is my last attempt, where I gave up on krivy and just wanted to know if it was working. I have tried absolutely every variation of the command. Nothing yields results.

Did you try anything from here? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25981703/pip-install-fails-with-connection-error-ssl-certificate-verify-failed-certi — MegaIng, Aug 15 '18 at 02:02
I have that open in one of my tabs, funnily enough. I've not had any luck with it. — John Smith, Aug 15 '18 at 02:04
I have tried that, with no luck. I've gone through every variation of the command I could find. Nothing is working. — John Smith, Aug 15 '18 at 02:09
weird, i thought it was a typo on the package name (double check please). pygubu, not pygyubu — Paolo, Aug 15 '18 at 02:11
Try `sudo apt install libssl` (and maybe reinstall/rebuild python) — MegaIng, Aug 15 '18 at 02:12
And yes, I have tried turning it off and on again too. And I have tried your suggestion previously, Mega. — John Smith, Aug 15 '18 at 02:14
Did you try updating ``pip``? What does `pip --version` return? — MegaIng, Aug 15 '18 at 02:14
And if it was a typo in this one, that doesn't explain the other installs failing. — John Smith, Aug 15 '18 at 02:17

Do you have either environment variable PIP_CERT or SSL_CERT_FILE ? — wim, Aug 15 '18 at 02:22

Try pip install --egg pygubu and use "pip list --uptodate" and "pip list --outdated" command
