Here is what you can try.
- Lets check python installation.
C:\Users\User>python --version
Python 3.10.5
C:\Users\User>
If you get the version as 3.x, then we are good, else goto your python installation directory and copy its path and then add it to your environment variable PATH.
- Check PIP available or not.
C:\Users\User>pip --version
pip 22.3 from C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.10)
C:\Users\User>
if above didn't work then add pip path to PATH environment variable which would be something similar to above output.
- Now we are ready to install any package
Just do pip install package-name
for testing, you can try:
pip install numpy
If it still throws error, try below one
python -m pip install numpy
if it still throws error, then you might need to clean your python installation.

3 commands
sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3-pip
pip3 install <package_name>
or maybe
sudo apt install <package_name> -y
The accepted answer is outdated. So first, pip is preferred over easy_install, (Why use pip over easy_install?). Then follow these steps to install pip on Windows, it's quite easy.
Install
setuptools:curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py | pythonInstall
pip:curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | pythonOptionally, you can add the path to your environment so that you can use
pipanywhere. It's somewhere likeC:\Python33\Scripts.
Newer versions of Python for Windows come with the pip package manager. (source)
pip is already installed if you're using Python 2 >=2.7.9 or Python 3 >=3.4
Use pip to install packages from the Python Package Index.
cd C:\Python\Scripts\
pip.exe install <package-name>
In your case run:
pip.exe install mechanize
