Is this similar to issue35872? Can you please specify the full version of 
Python as in 3.7.0 or later?

[issue36080] Ensurepip fails to install pip into a nested virtual environment (on Windows)

[Sammy Gillespie]

Sammy Gillespie  added the comment:

To expand on this. Using:

> python -m pip

in the second virtual environment (which does not have pip) gives the following 
usage example:

> Usage:
> C:\venv_test\\Scripts\python.exe -m pip  [options]

Yet the python running this command is not in venv_1, it is in venv_2.

So the issue appears to lie with how pip determines its python location. So 
this issue may be more suited there.

[issue36080] Ensurepip fails to install pip into a nested virtual environment (on Windows)

[Sammy Gillespie]

New submission from Sammy Gillespie :

Running Windows 10 Enterprise. Create a virtual environment:

> python -m venv .venv

Activate that virtual environment and attempt to create another virtual 
environment using the same command.

This new environment will not contain pip (or anything other than just Python).

Investigating this further. Running:

> python -Im ensurepip --upgrade --default-pip

from within the second virtual environment results in:

> Requirement already up-to-date: pip in 

--

I want to create a python tool that will build a virtual env, but this 
restricts me from being able to install that tool into a virtual env (e.g. 
using pipx).
