Pip
=====
If you have a "recent" version of Python installed then you should
already have Pip installed as well.
Sanity Check
============
Just to be sure you have it, open a new console (``cmd.exe``) and run
a version check:
.. code-block:: none
C:\>pip --version
pip 21.2.3 from C:\Program Files\Python39\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.9)
If that doesn't work then maybe try to close and re-open your console
first.
Note that the Pip version check is only expected to work if the Python
version check *also* worked. So maybe see also docs for that, in
:ref:`python-sanity-check`.
If the Python version check works but Pip still does not then maybe
your Python version is too old? In that case you probably need to
install Pip. The recommended method is via the ``get-pip.py`` script
according to `these instructions`_.

If you're sure Pip is installed and yet the version check still fails,
please file a bug report at https://redmine.rattailproject.org/
