Python: command “python -m pip install --upgrade pip” doesn't work


Question

hello dear experts, 

 

 

well i have no idea why the python things do not work here. 

 

the pc. Win 7

the idea: i want to install the newest python and some additional things. 

 

 

 


 

Python: command “python -m pip install --upgrade pip” doesn't work

 

 

I want to upgrade my pip, but if I type in "python -m pip install --upgrade pip", then my command shell says "cannot find 'python'". Python is already installed and my command shell can't detect the command "python", though.

Expand  

You haven't typed python, you started the command part way through.

 

Try copy and pasting the command they gave you:

c:\program files\python37\python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip

    • Gemini CLI brings AI smarts to your Firebase terminal experience by Paul Hill Google has added its Gemini AI model directly into the command-line interface of Firebase Studio, its cloud-based IDE that uses AI to help with projects. The Gemini Command Line Interface (CLI) means that developers can expand past using AI for code, they can now also use AI for content generation and research without leaving the IDE. Gemini CLI comes with free usage tiers (60 model requests per minute, 1,000 requests per day with a Google login), it offers advanced AI features, and includes integrated Google Search for real-time content. Gemini CLI is also open source so it can be customized and accepts contributions. Accessing the Gemini CLI within Firebase Studio is straightforward, just press “Code view” in the top-right. From there, open up the terminal from the burger menu then select Terminal and New Terminal. Then in the terminal, type gemini and go through the setup, you can just press enter twice to get started. Out of the box, you’ll be able to get started with Gemini 2.5 Pro by just typing a query and pressing enter. There is also a non-interactive mode that’s useful for scripting and automation. To use it you use the –prompt or -p flags followed by your query wrapped in quotes, for example: gemini -p “What is the capital of France?” In this mode, Gemini CLI automatically closes after completing the request. During setup, there was the option to choose a theme. If you ever want to change it or look at other settings such as usage states, tool access, or checkpointing, you can edit them via .gemini/settings.json. You can also add API keys or choose different models in .env and you can using GEMINI.md to provide project-specific context, instructions, and coding styles in Gemini for a more tailored response. With Gemini CLI, you can have it explain code, refactor code, debug errors, and summarize information. It’s as simple as typing explain [file], refactor , debug “Error message”, or summarize “topic”. There are also built-in commands for managing the session such as /help for a command list, /chat to save and resume conversations, /tools to see available tools, and /restore to undo tool-made file edits. Firebase Studio, in true Google fashion, is a cloud-based IDE used in your web browser, making it excellent for weaker computers. To get started, you can head to the Firebase website. From there, tap Studio in the top-right.
    • I would prefer local ai over online ai on some tasks . They are good enough for tasks like artificial voice , image editing , text corrections , tagging etc . Local AI on Windows Photo editor is impressive for example . There are probably many other Ai that we could run on simple pc with GPUs .
    • oh look, we are under the control of the U.S again, is it not about time we as a country did this ourselves if they want it, not rely on greedy U.S. tech companies? We are capable of doing so as a country. I hate how the U.K have gone with no industry like we used to have and relying on other countries. Maybe we should follow Trump words, and make Britain great again and stop bending over to please Trump and other countries. Our government is Trumps puppet. I know we need to co-operate on some things, but come on.
    • Actually I see no problem is notifying readers in advance. The post author mentioned that it'll be available on July 22.
