Answer 1

There are two types of console: windows and python.

Windows commands are typed into the windows console ( cmd.exe from the start menu). This looks like

C:\path\to\folder>

and python commands (really, lines of code) are typed into a python console, which looks like

You are typing a windows command into a python console, which won't work.

If you run py -3 at a Windows console then you will start a python process and get a python console.

You can run Windows commands from a python console by using python's subprocess library:

import subprocess
subprocess.run("py -3 -m pip install -U discord.py")

Answer 2

You can use CMD to install your dependency. Run it in CMD
Command: py -3 -m pip install -U discord.py
