installing openpyxl
#2
You have a choice of any package being installed in the default directory, or creating a Python virtual environment using the venv command. The latter option is generally preferred to avoid polluting your base environment with packages that are specific to particular projects (and different projects are likely to need different packages, some of which might conflict with each other).

So on Windows, we usually start Python using the py command on the command or powershell line, and you'd invoke a command like venv or pip using the -m option.

Packages will typically install in <virtualenv_name>/lib/<python_ver>/site-packages when you have a virtual environment.

You can check where pip has installed packages to using:pip list -v or py -m pip list -v
I am trying to help you, really, even if it doesn't always seem that way
