pipwin: Uninstall a package.
$ pipwin uninstall ${package_name}
try on your machine

The command "pipwin uninstall ${package_name}" is not a valid pip command.

Pip is a package management system used to install and manage software packages written in Python. The "uninstall" command is used to remove a package from the Python environment.

However, "pipwin" is not a built-in command in pip. It appears to be a separate package called "pipwin" which provides a Windows-specific version of pip. It is used to install and manage some packages that are difficult to install on Windows using standard pip.

Therefore, the command "pipwin uninstall ${package_name}" is likely attempting to uninstall a package specified by ${package_name} using the pipwin package. It is not a valid pip command, but rather a specific command for pipwin.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
