Pip is not working

 Fix Pip problem

If Pip is not working at all and none of the previous suggestions helped and you are not able to download any package, so here i am going to help you out you can try the following troubleshooting steps:

First of all if your pip is not working, make sure your command is in correct form, In case downloading any Python package, you need to write correct command to run Pip. The command either should be only `pip` or `pip3` followed by the desired action, such as `installation` or `search`. For example, `pip install requests` or `pip3 search numpy`.

Verify Python installation either it is installed correctly or not, make sure that Python is installed correctly on your system because Pip is typically installed alongside Python. You can simply check your Python installation either it is installed properly or not by running `python --version` or `python3 --version` for Python 3. If Python is not installed, you should install Python first before using Pip. here you can head to download Python's latest version by clicking on following link.


However your Python is already downloaded and pip is not working, in that case you should check Pip installation either it is working or not, here you can check if Pip is installed on your system by running `pip --version` or `pip3 --version` for Python 3. If it seems that Pip is not installed on your system, you can simply download and install it manually from its official website. Here you can visit the official website to download Pip manually and follow the all the installation steps and instructions for your operating system or if you don't want to visit the official site, you can even install it using following method.


if you really don't want to visit the official website for downloading the pip, let me take you through the following method to download it. To download pip you have to use get-pip.py script which includes some bootstrapping logic to install pip. you can download this script by clicking on the download script button and open a terminal/command prompt, cd to the folder containing the get-pip.py file and run the following command.
py get-pip.py




this is how you have to open the script.

get-pip script

here you can see how you have to write the above command in the terminal.
