Question

When I wanted to install pip, the error just came out:
C:\Users\xd>python get-pip.py install
Collecting install
Exception:

What can I do?

For recent Python versions (3.4+), you don't need to use the get-pip.py script anymore. Just run python -m ensurepip, and the ensurepip module will do everything the get-pip.py script used to do.
