I have installed Python 3.8.10 on windows server 2019.
When I try to run "pip list" or any other pip command, it throws error of "pip not found. unrecognized command". I checked Scripts directory where usually pip resides in the installation, and pip is missing.
Note: while installing I made sure that pip should be installed along with the python installation.

Can you attach the log files stored in your %TEMP% as a zip file? They should all start with "Python".

Be aware that they may contain personal information, such as usernames or machine names. Feel free to scrub those first if necessary.

If you installed 'py' (the default), you should be able to install pip with 'py -3.8 -m ensurepip'. (I had to do this once. I wrote the failure off as a random glitch and did not think to open an issue.)
