Error while installing Jupyter: Command errored out with exit status 1: python setup.py egg_info Check the logs for full command output

Question

I tried installing Jupyter through pip and it failed showing this.

The package setup script has attempted to modify files on your system that are not within the EasyInstall build area, and has been aborted.

This package cannot be safely installed by EasyInstall, and may not support alternate installation locations even if you run its setup script by hand. Please, inform the package's author and the EasyInstall maintainers to find out if a fix or workaround is available.

Answer 1

Try to upgrade your packages:

pip install --upgrade setuptools

pip install --upgrade pip

its seems like missmatch in your versions

Answer 2

simply follow this to install jupyter in windows :-

1nd - Go to file manager and find python folder (like:-python,python37,python39 etc...) may be it's in (C:\Python39) or (C:\Users\prade\AppData\Local\Programs\python39) .

2rd - in python folder open Scripts folder (Ex:- C:\......\python39\Scripts) and copy this path.

3rd - run cmd as administrator and past above path using cd (like:- cd C:\.....\python39\Scripts)

4th - now simply use jupyter install command (like:- pip install jupyterlab)
