That part of the error message tells you the story. Windows thinks some
file in the install has been corrupted with malware.
The Windows installer comes with pip, there's no need to do an extra
install to get it:
python -m pip --version
On Windows it's recommended that you use the Python Launcher 'py':
py -m pip --version
If you can't find the pip *command*, that's a problem with yout PATH
settings. The Python installer offers to add the location of Python
itself to PATH, and you've apparently taken it up on that offer, but
that's not the same directory that pip goes to. Just use it as a module
and you should be fine.

The typical paths will be something like
C:\Users\you\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310 # python executable
C:\Users\you\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\Scripts # pip
"executable"
