'pip' is not recognized as an internal or

Question

I'm trying to install Tweepy using pip, but I keep getting this as the response:

I've seen similar problems and people always suggest adding C:\Python34\Scripts to your PATH. Here is what happens when I try and do that:

Then when I do echo %PATH% it doesn't show the path that I added. Using pip still does not work.

How do I make it to where I am able to use pip? I looked through multiple other questions that were VERY similar to mine, but none of the solutions worked.

Thanks for the help in advance!

Answer 1

It seems like you are using windows so you need to download the get-pip.py and run like this.

Path_to_your_Python.exe\python.exe Path_to_get-pip.py\get-pip.py tweepy

Here is the link for download get-pip.py

Answer 2

I would recommend using this guide for adding a new folder to your system path, normally works for me. It goes through a GUI instead of adding through the command line.

A second solution is that you can just cd into the directory that contains pip and use it from there each time, but thats only if nothing else works.
