Can't pip install anything EnvironmentError: [Errno 2]










2















Windows 10



I'm trying to pip install stuff, however since today I can't install anything because I keep getting the following error:



Cold not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'c:usersbehherderanaconda3envsdlclibsite-packagesprompt_toolkit-2.0.7.dist-infoMETADATA'



However, if I go there, the file exists. So might that it gets deleted before, and the placed back after the error?



It happens with everything I'm trying to install or upgrade.



I tried upgrading PIP, got that error. Any other install, that error....



Anyone knows what's wrong and how to solve?
Or need any more info?



Thanks!
