Answer 1

I've had the same issue as you, and I solved it uninstalling pip and installing again.

To uninstall: python -m pip uninstall pip

To install, follow the instructions: https://www.liquidweb.com/kb/install-pip-windows/

After that you will going to have a older but functional 19.0.3 version.
