You can do a simply one line command as suggested by Tweepy installation

Or you can download the file yourself and put on your desktop (or wherever you like). From the windows command type:

  1. cd deskstop\tweepy-master # tweepy-mast is defaul name from the zip download
  2. python steup.py install

You can access the command prompt window using the "Window key" + "R" then type "cmd".

You should look inside the file setup.py in your folder with downloaded tweepy.
There you could find the line:

from pip.req import parse_requirements

setup.py tries to import parse_requirements function from module req from package pip. But inside tweepy folder there are no pip package with req.py python module. Read about Python packages and modules here.
So you need to do the steps from the answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/25193001/821093 to fix it.
