How to solve error installing setuptools python in windows

can someone help me with an issue I am struggling for a couple of hours, I am trying to install "flask-jwt-extended" using

pip install flask-jwt-extended

but I am getting the following error

ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1:
     command: 'c:\python.exe' -c 'import sys, setuptools, tokenize; sys.argv[0] = '"'"'C:\\Users\\User\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\pip-install-fg_ccsgv\\flask-jwt-extended\\setup.py'"'"'; __file__='"'"'C:\\Users\\User\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\pip-install-fg_ccsgv\\flask-jwt-extended\\setup.py'"'"';f=getattr(tokenize, '"'"'open'"'"', open)(__file__);code=f.read().replace('"'"'\r\n'"'"', '"'"'\n'"'"');f.close();exec(compile(code, __file__, '"'"'exec'"'"'))' egg_info --egg-base pip-egg-info

    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'setuptools'
    ----------------------------------------
ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: python setup.py egg_info Check the logs for full command output.

It says I have to install setuptools, but I already have installed it.

Requirement already satisfied: setuptools in c:\lib\site-packages (41.2.0)

Can someone help me out with that? I don't know what can it be

Thanks!

pip install gitpython

pip install os-win

pip install wheel

Use sudo for Linux or run cmd as Administrator for Windows.

This solved the issue for me.
