How to install the pygmentize module on Python 3.3.6

Question

I'm trying to install the pygmentize module on a Windows XP computer which uses Python 3.3.6 (Sep 29th, 2012)

When I did pip install pygmentize it returned windows XP Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process so I've applied this solution and here it is how went:

$ python -m pip install --upgrade pip
Collecting pip

  Found existing installation: pip 7.1.2
    Uninstalling pip-7.1.2:
      Successfully uninstalled pip-7.1.2
Successfully installed pip-21.2.2

When I've tried to install again:

$ pip install pygmentize
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\programs\python-3.3\lib\runpy.py", line 160, in _run_module_as_main
    "__main__", fname, loader, pkg_name)
  File "c:\programs\python-3.3\lib\runpy.py", line 73, in _run_code
    exec(code, run_globals)
  File "C:\Programs\python-3.3\Scripts\pip.exe\__main__.py", line 5, in <module>
  File "c:\programs\python-3.3\lib\site-packages\pip\__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
    from typing import List, Optional
ImportError: No module named 'typing'

Assuming that pip-21.2.2 is fully compatible with pyrhon-3.3.6 I think it's caused by my python-3.3.6 being incompatible with the current version of pygmentize If that is the case how can I check which version of pygmentize is compatible with python-3.3.6 and how can I install that compatible version of it in python-3.3.6 ?

[`pip` 21.2.2](https://pypi.org/project/pip/21.2.2/) is not compatible with Python 3.3, it requires Python 3.6+. For Python 3.3 you need `pip` 10.0.1 (anything < 18). Download https://bootstrap.pypa.io/pip/3.3/get-pip.py and see how to use it to fix your `pip`: https://stackoverflow.com/a/65871131/7976758. Then upgrade with `pip install --upgrade "pip < 18"` — phd, Aug 01 '21 at 21:22

If you use pycharm you can go to "python-packages" and search for pygmentize then install it
