Answer 1

I also had this problem. If you also have Visual Studio installed with the Python extension, the system will want to use Studio's version of Python. Set the Environment Path to the version in Studio's Shared folder. For me, that was:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Shared\Python36_64\

After that, run

python -m pip install pylint

from a command prompt with Administrator rights.
