[issue40395] Scripts folder is Empty in python 3.8.2 for Windows 7.

[Why Me]

I had the same issue (win 10, py 3.8.5, executable installer). The solution i've found is to install python to non-standard catalog (D:/ instead of windows user folder which is under access protection). In this case, the file "easy_install.exe" will be created in the Scripts folder. Then open console inside the folder and call "easy_install pip", this will install pip. After that just copy everything to the standard catalog and don't forget to change the environment variables. Hope this helps.
