It is quite possible that you have installed Python into the C:\Programs and Files
or C:\Programs and Files (x64)
(or other folder without writing permission) folder, ie your user is not allowed to write to these folders right after you think who installed it is likely that something else has happened.
The ideal thing to do is to install it, perhaps in the root, or in your user's folder, first you will have to remove Python and then install again and change the location of the installation.
Another way to install, if that's what you want, is to install pip
with elevated privileges
Run cmd as a Windows 7 Administrator
Open the start menu, and in the search field type cmd
, when the cmd
appears in the programs, right-click / mouse and select Executar como administrador
RuncmdasaWindows8and10administrator

Nowdownload link and then run and depending on where you downloaded use cd
to browse, example :
cd C:\Users\[Nome do seu usuário padrão]\Downloads
And then run it by typing this in the terminal:
python get-pip.py
Anyway, if you can avoid Programs And Files
or any folder that needs privileges, it will be better (easier).
