This is a limitation of Windows: you can't replace the executable that you're currently running. To work around this, do "python -m pip install --upgrade pip" instead. If you have the Python Launcher for Windows installed (included with Python 3.3+), you can use in place of 'python' in that command, and be very sure about which python's pip is being upgraded. -- Zach -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
