There are several solutions that you can try to solve the Pip SSL error on Windows:

1. Upgrade Pip to the latest version by running the command: pip install --upgrade pip.

2. Disable SSL verification temporarily by running the command: pip install --trusted-host pypi.org --trusted-host files.pythonhosted.org <package>.

3. Upgrade your SSL certificates by downloading the certificates from the official website and adding them to your Windows certificate store.

4. Use a virtual environment for your Python packages and install the required packages in a separate environment.

5. Update your SSL configuration by editing the configuration file located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Python\<version>\Lib\site-packages\pip\_vendor\requests\cacert.pem.

6. Check if you have any antivirus or firewall software that may interfere with the SSL verification process and temporarily disable them.

If none of the above solutions work, you can also try reinstalling Python and Pip on your Windows machine.
