PS C:\Users\Story\Desktop\1> python3 get-pip.py Python why?

benda1313 commented 2 years ago

You should run pip install using:

python get-pip.py

This might be due to the Windows store integration? /cc @zooba

It should print out a longer message if it's the redirection stub, telling you that Python isn't installed and how to get it. No idea why the message is being cut short, but I believe it starts with "Python [is not available...]" and so this seems most likely.

The regular installer has only ever added python.exe to PATH. You only get python3 from a Store install, so if @stripov1337 has installed from python.org (or is in a virtual environment) then using python get-pip.py is indeed the right solution.
