Import Error: Missing optional dependecy ‘openpyxl.’

I am familiar with using pip to install Python packages but there is no way to install it in the environment I am working in. We have to call the directory with python.exe to run any Python code. Therefore, it is impossible to use pip install because, since there is no python, there is no pip. How could we install packages without using pip or installing pip via the python.exe file? Here is an image of the error: enter image description here

Answer

Packages like pip can be executed from the python executable using python.exe -m pip install openpyxl. If you don’t have sufficient firewall permissions (as you mentioned high security) you may not be able to connect to the package servers, which you would need to discuss with admin.
