Where does PIP Store / Save Python 3 Modules / Packages on Windows 8?

Use this command to list global packages with their locations:

pip list -v

# output example (windows 10):
# Package                   Version   Location                                                         Installer
# ------------------------- --------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------
# adal                      0.4.5     c:\users\test\appdata\roaming\python\python36\site-packages      pip
# aiocache                  0.10.0    c:\program files\python36\lib\site-packages                      pip
