This is exactly what I see from 64 bit python installed on 64 bit 
Windows.  'win32' refers to the Windows platform, versus linux, unix, 
darwin, etc.  Yes, it is confusing.



So your OS is 32 bit?


The next line says that this binary runs fine.  So 'No'.  The problem is 
specific to trying to run pip.



This v.1900 was downloaded from python.org?


MSC v.1900 is the latest Microsoft C compiler, which was used to compile 
the binary.  It is not downloaded.

So your OS is 32 bit? If so, you can't run 64-bit software on it.

This v.1900 was downloaded from python.org? Or is it from a different
web site?

Re: Unable to run pip in Windows 10

"Access is denied" sounds like you've installed Python for all users
(i.e. in C:\Program Files) and you're not using an elevated prompt to
run pip. If you have Python in C:\Program Files, you either need to
install modules in your user environment (via pip install --user)
which means they'll only be visible to you, or you need to be running
as a system administrator to install them for anyone (which means
running pip from a command prompt that was opened via "run as
administrator")

There's no "pip import" command - I guess you meant "pip install"?

Rather than transcribing what you did, can you include a copy and
paste of the actual text in your command window?

I also googled for the message you quoted, and I see that it's a
Windows message (not one from pip or Python). The most obvious
suggestion from that was "you're running a 64-bit application on a
32-bit Windows". I note from the above:

Are you running 32-bit Windows? If so, you got the wrong version of
Python (you need the 32-bit version).

You're going to have to give us some more information for anybody to be able
to really help you here. We just don't know what's going on.

 - What exactly did you install?
 - Can you start the Python interpreter?
   * How exactly did you go about this
 - How exactly do you try to run pip?
 - What exactly happens when you try?

You quoted an error message, and that's great. What's missing is really any
information on how you GOT this error message.

It's difficult to know what to say - it runs fine for me (Windows 10,
Python 3.6, 64-bit, downloaded from python.org).

Maybe check that the file you downloaded is complete, by confirming
the size/checksum matches? Do you have any antivirus software that
could be interfering?

Unable to run pip in Windows 10

I have tried multiple versions, 32 & 64 bit. Same problem.

"This app can't run on your PC. To find a version for your PC, check with
