We recommend uninstalling the Python launcher from previous installs when installing the Python install manager, as both use the py command. After installing the install manager, the first launch should run a configuration checker, which can also be manually launched with py install --configure or pymanager install --configure.

If you installed Python from source, with an installer from python.org, or via Homebrew you should already have pip. If you’re on Linux and installed using your OS package manager, you may have to install pip separately, see Installing pip/setuptools/wheel with Linux Package Managers.

r/sysadmin on Reddit: Explain Python installation and management to a Windows admin

Hello!
Does anyone know a good resource that explains the architecture of Python from a packaging and maintenance perspective? I took a look at the official docs, and as far as I can tell, you have the runtime, then you have packages, modules and libraries. I'm not sure what each of these are, some might be the same thing? And where each of these gets installed and how it's configured. Any advice on how to manage this on Windows would be greatly appreciated.
Background
So, a thing just came up here where we built a bunch of non-persistent VDIs for a new set of users. Project went well, came in under budget and on time, users verified the solution and everyone was happy.
That was a month ago. Now they reached out going "We have to have Python! Why are the machines non-persistent! We are installing things and they disappear!". All of this was covered and highlighted multiple times during the project, they claimed they understood and chose non-persistent machines over personal persistent machines since, like most of us, they liked the idea of less work for them and us managing updates and not needing to install everything themselves.
Now, they are saying they need Python and the number 50-100 applications or libraries has been thrown around. No-one has provided a list or a very clear requirement yet. Mostly because this would require work on their part listing what they need so we know what to install.

Windows Python installations can be either machine wide (%PROGRAMFILES%) or within the user profile (%LOCALAPPDATA%). On Windows, pip, the Python package manager comes preinstalled. I'm going to assume you've provided the machine-wide installation. When installing Python packages globally, which I would discourage, Python attempts to install the packages to \lib\site-packages\ for pure Python packages and a mixture of other folders (\Include\, \Scripts\) within the Python directory for C header files, binaries, etc. Ideally your users would use venv to create "virtual environments" in some persistent directory to develop their applications. This creates a sort of "skeleton" set of folders (\Include\, \Scripts\, \Lib\) where the user can install packages and develop an application in that doesn't effect the global Python installation. This will also prevent a host of problems with dependency conflicts that can happen if you install all your packages globally. As a side note, virtual environments also come with an activate.bat within \Scripts\ to activate the virtual environment and allow the packages to be installed and run within it. There will still undoubtedly be issues with user buy-in, especially if they've never used venv, or prefer to go with something like conda. Disclaimer: I've never used non-persistent VDIs, but have used Python extensively in my past position as a software developer.
