"pip install markdown" giving following error.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\python27\lib\runpy.py", line 174, in _run_module_as_main
    "__main__", fname, loader, pkg_name)
  File "c:\python27\lib\runpy.py", line 72, in _run_code
    exec code in run_globals
  File "C:\Python27\Scripts\pip.exe\__main__.py", line 5, in <module>
ImportError: No module named _internal

Using Windows. I have installed both python 2.7 and python 3.6 in C:\Python27 and C:\Python36 respectively. Python 2.7 is the default one right now. I am trying to install for python 2.7.

It was working before installing mysql. Don't know if that has anything to do with it. I updated the python 2.7.14 to python 2.7.15. Tried turning off antivirus. Tried to look up the exact error but everyone has slightly different error. Tried uninstalling pip and reinstalling pip. Tried restarting the pc. Tried to look into run.py found nothing. Tried to look for main.py by opening pip.exe but it is not opening with idle/sublime. I think it has something to do with user authentication but not sure. There is only one user/administrator on the system.
