Guys how much more years you need to fix that sequence of upgrade????
Remember: firstly install then delete.

Fix
Run from admin console or install python not to system disk or use sudo (e.g. gsudo.exe).

Could you try python -m ensurepip --upgrade or get-pip.py?

Thanks but it does not work. The problem is that "Ask for Forgiveness than Permission" does not work when you do not ask for neither.

Can you post what you got when trying these methods? Also, can you try pip install --upgrade pip?
