  </code></pre>
  
  <p><code>pip.exe</code> is now in my <code>C:\Python27\Scripts</code> directory. I opened up the windows command prompt (as administrator), and switched to the <code>C:\Python27\Scripts</code> directory. I then typed: <code>pip --version</code></p>
  
  <p>The only thing happens is the command prompt moves down 2 lines. No error messages are returned. See output of command window above.</p>
  
  <p>How can I get pip to run on Windows 10?</p>
