Can it be used in Windows and Python virtual environments?

[VacantHusky]

windows11, python3.8, pycharm2022.

D:\AppInstall\Python38\python.exe: No module named pip
Command '['python', '-m', 'pip', '--default-timeout', '45', 'install', 'mmcv==2.0.0rc4']' returned non-zero exit status 1.

D:\AppInstall\Python38\python.exe is not the virtual environment I use, but my main environment。
My virtual environment was created by pycharm。

Please help me！

Hi @VacantHusky , openmim can be also used in Windows and it is recommended to install openmim in a conda environment.

The package pip is missed in your environment. You can use python -m ensurepip to install pip manually.

The ensurepip package provides support for bootstrapping the pip installer into an existing Python installation or virtual environment. This bootstrapping approach reflects the fact that pip is an independent project with its own release cycle, and the latest available stable version is bundled with maintenance and feature releases of the CPython reference interpreter.
In most cases, end users of Python shouldn’t need to invoke this module directly (as pip should be bootstrapped by default), but it may be needed if installing pip was skipped when installing Python (or when creating a virtual environment) or after explicitly uninstalling pip.

i run cmd in venv in windows cmd, is no work for me

also i install mmcv like 'mim install mmcv',is work,but not work for 'mim install mmpose'

[SoftologyPro]

I can reproduce the same issue.
Create a venv and then these commands (these are to try and get MusePose working)

pip install --no-cache-dir -U openmim 
mim install mmengine 
mim install "mmcv>=2.0.1" 
mim install "mmdet>=3.1.0" 
mim install "mmpose>=1.1.0" 

mmpose stage gives the same no module named pip.
Is it possible to install the aboive using the standard pip install command, and if so, how?
