pip install pillow doesn't work on windows 11
Question
I am trying to use the pillow package but it doesn't want to install. It works on my windows 10 machine, but I need it to work on my other machine, which is windows 11, as well. My pip version is the same on both machines: 22.2.2 and I tried upgrading pip, it doesn't help. I tried reinstalling python but noticed something weird. When I type python --version , my current python version is 3.8.7 and I don't know why. I uninstalled python via controll panel, there is no python visible in the list in controll panel anymore, where does this python come from and how do I get rid of it so that I can use python 3.10? And will this also solve the problem of not being able to install pipllow. This is the full error message I recieve when trying python -m pip install pillow

Though I have never encountered this problem, but from the error messages, I am guessing it's a problem with missing modules.
__main__.RequiredDependencyException:
The headers or library files could not be found for zlib,
a required dependency when compiling Pillow from source.
Try run import zlib , see if there is any errors importing the module. Install zlib if you don't have it yet.
Also, there is an issue on the Pillow repo on GitHub reporting the same problem. According to that, you can also try re-install pip see if that solves the problem.
Hope this helps.
