Error keeps on showing up when i try to install a module on python

I am trying to install the modules shodan and requests but this error keeps showing up and i do not know why. It worked fine for my PC but when i tried it on my laptop this error keeps showing up.

I went to the scripts director of python and entered the following command:

python -m pip install shodan

and

python -m pip install requests

However, this error keeps showing up:

i've resolved the issue already. Thank you. All i did was reinstall my python and ensured that python was added to both my current user's variable and my system variables

Try running the pip package manager directly:

pip install shodan

This might be because your OS is 32 bit and the python version your using is 64 bit. Try installing 32 bit version of python and installing these libraries.
