"PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied" error while installing package in anaconda in windows

I'm getting Error while installing watson package in anaconda by
pip install --upgrade watson-developer-cloud==0.26.1
even though I run the command prompt as administrator mode!(in windows 10, Python 3.6.3)

Collecting watson-developer-cloud==0.26.1

Try out to install as a user:

pip install --upgrade watson-developer-cloud==0.26.1 --user

You can also try to use environments. They are also useful, if you plan to migrate your stuff to the Cloud
