I have already offered to do whatever you would like me to do on this system - after I'm up and running on Linux. I need a functioning PyCharm on this system until that happens.
Please accept my word that the attempt to upgrade pip broke when it tried to install Visual Studio 2015, and I wouldn't even have known to say that's what happened if I hadn't seen it in the traceback. Quite possibly it wasn't supposed to do that, but I won't be able to reproduce that traceback until I no longer need Python3 running on this system. I'm not sure what it is that you think we disagree on.
