Problem description

Hi, I am new to python and I am trying to install the email package, but it says "setuptools is not available in the build environment." I tried everything I could find on google and nothing works. I tried to install another package on another computer and it outputted the same error. Everything is up to date. Easy_install does not work. I am using the latest version of python and I am using Windows PowerShell.

Does anyone know what I need to do?

Thanks in advance.
