Cant install python packages SSL certificate issue

Question

Hi I have python version 3.9.6 installed and pip version 21.1.3. And I'm trying to run py -m pip install Django and I get the following errors:

WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=4, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None))

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement Django (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for Django

Can anyone please help me and tell me how to solve this issue.

I tried to turn off my antivirus but it didn't help

I can't use openssl on my cmd if anyone knows how to import Django step by step it would help me very much as I'm new using python.

Thanks.

Used this and worked

python -m pip install Django --trusted-host=pypi.python.org --trusted-host=pypi.org --trusted-host=files.pythonhosted.org
