pip cannot by found by VS Code

Question

Today I opened VS Code and typed

pip

and it said

Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process using 
'"C:\Users\{User Name}\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\python.exe"  "C:\Users\{User Name}\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\Scripts\pip.exe" ': 
The system cannot find the file specified.

I tried to repair Python two times but it still didn't work

Can you check if the files do exist at the specified locations? — Jeremy Savage, Jun 22 '23 at 11:12
It seems that your VSCode is not finding python. Maybe you have to configure this in Vscode — Jose Manuel de Frutos, Jun 22 '23 at 11:13
@JoseManueldeFrutos I tried in command prompt and didn't work — Mithun, Jun 22 '23 at 11:16

Now It said this error: Could not find platform independent libraries C:\Python311\python.exe: No module named pip — Mithun, Jun 22 '23 at 11:22

1、open win10 setting->system->Advanced system settings
2、add the python path to PATH
3、restart your vscode terminal or restart vscode or restart you computer, then reinstall using pip

if above don't work, you should try using cmd to install packages

It's already there – Mithun Jun 24 '23 at 05:57
maybe you should go to this directory: "F:\kksoftware\miniconda3\Scripts", and using `F:\kksoftware\miniconda3\Scripts\pip.exe install numpy` – Jiu_Zou Jun 24 '23 at 10:41

I found a way to fix it!

Uninstall Python and Python Launcher
Install Python Again
Run pip and it worked!

Proff of it worked
