How do I fix error when installing pyInstaller

Question

I use windows and python v3.8.1. I am trying to install pyinstaller , but when I type:

pip install pyinstaller

into the cmd shell, I get this error message:

 Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\\program files\\python38\\lib\\runpy.py", line 193, in _run_module_as_main return _run_code(code, main_globals, None, File "c:\\program files\\python38\\lib\\runpy.py", line 86, in _run_code exec(code, run_globals) File "C:\\Program Files\\Python38\\Scripts\\pip.exe\\__main__.py", line 9, in <module> TypeError: 'module' object is not callable

Answer 1

Try

python3 -m pip install stdlib_list --user

Otherwise try to uninstall and reinstall PIP

Answer 2

尝试使用以下命令python3 -m pip install <library_name_here> --user

Answer 3

Check this, using: pip list

• There is a setuptools module installed. If not: py -m pip install setuptools

  I remember latest version is 44.0

Then try to install, using: py -m pip install PyInstaller

 Latest version is 3.5

Anyway, PyInstaller doesn't support Python 3.8.x.
