# Resolving "pip is not recognized" Error
This markdown explains how to fix the error "pip is not recognized" and install Streamlit on Windows.
**Error:**
The message "pip is not recognized" indicates that your system doesn't recognize the `pip` command for installing Python packages.
**Solution:**
1. **Install `get-pip`:**
- Open a web browser and visit the official `get-pip` download page: [https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py](https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py)
- Download the "get-pip.py" file for your Python version.
- Open a **command prompt window** (search for "cmd" in the start menu).
- Navigate to the folder where you downloaded "get-pip.py" using the `cd` command. For example, if it's in Downloads, type `cd Downloads`.
- Run the following command to install `pip`:
python get-pip.py
2. **Install Streamlit with pip:**
- Once `pip` is installed, type the following command in the same command prompt window and press Enter:
pip install streamlit
This downloads and installs Streamlit.
**Additional Tips:**
- Use the command prompt window, not PowerShell.
- If you encounter further errors, search online for solutions specific to the error message (e.g., "streamlit install error").
