Try pip install numpy or pip3 install numpy
Or
Try a fresh installation of Python from the scratch. Download the .exe installer from their official website, and do 'check mark' the 'add environment variable' at the beginning.

On your CMD type python. It will enter python and you'll see this sign (>>>), type 'import numpy'. If it didnt install it you'll get:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy'
Then you'll need to type 'pip install numpy'.
If it did install it you'll see on a new line (>>>).
Another way to check if you installed it is by typing 'pip list' and see if it is there.
