os: Windows 10 python: 3.6

when I try to install JN, using this command:

pip install notebook

I get this error:

Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process using '"'

the only solution I found online:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip

is not helping, I get:

Requirement already up-to-date:

another thing I found is:

Copy & Paste the standalone python into the ampps/python folder and overwriting the python version provided by AMPPS

but I have no idea what does this means - what is AMPPS, where can find its folder, where can I find the standalone python, what is the standalone python.

how can I solve this?

How did you install python (which version), what OS are you on and what is the full error you get along the `Fatal error in launcher` one? – FlyingTeller Jan 29 '20 at 13:22
Forget about the `Copy & Paste the standalone python into the ampps...` bit. AMPPS is a Software that ships with an in-built python, so it is not applicalbe in this case – FlyingTeller Jan 29 '20 at 13:23
updates question with os and python versions. this is the full error. – Moran Reznik Jan 29 '20 at 13:24
