my pip doesn't download packages properly

I am trying to install numpy in the command prompt and it is returning an error

I have tried pip install numpy but it doesn't work. I have python 3.7.2 and pip 18.1. The problem also occurs with other downloads and such things. I have tried upgrading python, with no success.

C:\Users\riley>pip install numpy
Collecting numpy

This is always coming up when trying to use pip. why is this? (btw how do I format the indent space when pasting the code into the page like above?). The problem might be to do with the link that pip is trying to use (https://pypi.org/simple/pip/) leads to a 404 error on the page. follow the link and see what you find if you want.

I think you are under a proxy... This happened to me in my daily routine at work, the best option for this is to:

  1. Access https://pypi.org/simple/
  2. Find your lib
  3. Download the version you want...

Numpy: https://pypi.org/simple/numpy/
