Having installed modules using pip on windows, they should be in the installation directory, in "Lib/site-packages" directory. So suppose you have installed Python at

C://python27_x64

then those modules should be at

C://python27_x64/Lib/site-packages/

From this in python documentation:

Python usually stores its library (and thereby your site-packages folder) in the installation directory. So, if you had installed Python to C:\Python\, the default library would reside in C:\Python\Lib\ and third-party modules should be stored in C:\Python\Lib\site-packages.


If you want to install your packages in a different directory, use:

pip install --install-option="--prefix=$PREFIX_PATH" package_name

Use can use also --ignore-installed to force all dependencies to be reinstalled.

see other options
