Today, I was trying to install Python 3.10.1.
I was successful in this, but, then, as I was installing Flask, pip will tell me that it installed, then, when I run the script, it says nothing is installed.
After a while, I realized I was running my Python scripts in Python 3.10.1, but I was running pip in Python 3.7. I did as 
I looked at the directories that it wants to modify and gave ADMINISTRATORS ownership of all of them.
Absolutely nothing changed and did it again.
I gave myself ownership of it and did it again.
Absolutely nothing changed.
Then, I decided to run pip uninstall pip again. It says pip is not installed. That's strange.
I typed pip, and the help command for pip shows up.
Then, I (probably stupidly) went to all the directories and files PIP listed that it wants to uninstall, and manually deleted them, then uninstalled Python 3.10.1, and made sure to install PIP from there.
And now we're back at Python 3.7, and pip still isn't installed somehow.
I don't know what's happening. I haven't coded anything in Python for 2 or 3 years, and I want to try again, but this is starting to confuse me. Could anyone help?
Edit: Based on the suggestion of one of the answerers, I tried to manually delete pip. I couldn't find it in %APPDATA%, but pip --version shows me the path.
I tried deleting pip from there, but it says I need permission from ADMINISTRATORS. I am an administrator on my computer -.-
Anyways, I tried to take ownership of the folder, but nothing ever came of that.

Try to locate %APPDATA%\pip\pip by typing it into the file explorer. Pip will be located there, and you should be able to delete it.

I've managed to fix the issue.
I found that if I press this button in the start menu search for Python 3.7, it's possible to uninstall it from there (Control Panel said it uninstalled it when I used that, but it didn't).
I think I had installed Python from the Microsoft Store, which is why I couldn't find it in %APPDATA%.
Once I did that, I tried to uninstall Python 3.10 then re-install it. It kept saying it's installed, but it wouldn't show up in Command Prompt.
I fixed this by installing Python 3.10 from the Microsoft Store instead.
This fixed the problem.
