PS C:\Users\Eduardo\Downloads> python .\get-pip.py

  • See [this issue](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5448#issuecomment-395000804) to avoid SSL error. Try to use `--trusted-host pypi.org --trusted-host files.pythonhosted.org` options. Generally, best practice for any Python project is to _use a virtual environment_. So I would suggest: 1. create a virtual environment 2. source the virtual environment 3. `pip` is already installed, you need to upgrade it with `pip install pip --upgrade` and do the same for `setuptools` – tuned Apr 09 '20 at 12:59
  • @Eduardo, did you follow the steps in [pip installation docs](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/)? – Henrique Branco Apr 09 '20 at 13:12

Try to use curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py as mentioned in https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/ In other alternative, you could try and run the same command with user permissions adding sudo, like this:

sudo python get-pip.py

Hope it helps!

  • Try to install it in your home directory, instead of a folder within your home directory. – Diogo Lopes Apr 09 '20 at 12:06
  • If that doesn't work as well, you have two options: install an newer version like Python 3.6.9 or try: **pip install pip** or even **sudo apt-get install python-minimal** – Diogo Lopes Apr 09 '20 at 12:09
  • Yes, I think sudo apt-get install python-minimal installs 2.7.12, because 2.7.6 is probably a version with fewer support and packages nowadays. – Diogo Lopes Apr 09 '20 at 12:13
