I have tried using pip -m install win32api, but I still get the error "can't open file 'pip': [Errno 2] No such file or directory"

Can anyone help me on this?

Note: I have renamed the python.exe file as python2 and python3, since I have both versions installed on my pc.

python -m pip install pypiwin32
