如何修复ImportError：通过pip安装任何软件包时无法导入名称“ main”？

Question

After upgrading pip, i can't install any other packages(eg:pip install pandas). Always it is showing ImportError:cannot import name 'main' Am using windows 7 and I don't have administrator access

I already tried below steps but nothing worked.

python -m pip uninstall pip
python -m pip install pip==9.0.3

getting error msg as 'no module named pip. main ; pip is a package and cannot be directly executed

Answer 1

Alternate solution to fix your problem.

Download this python file and run the below command.

python get-pip.py

After that, run

python -m pip install --user pandas

--user makes pip install packages without any admin privileges.
