> I did use `pip` to install packages as you'll see in the screenshot.

Sorry, I don't see any pip commands. Please could you include sample commands inline as text, and not as screenshots, as attached files aren't accessible from emails...

As I say, I suspect the backports module is being imported before you change sys.path, and hence your sys.path change isn't affecting it.

Sorry, but unless you can provide a precise set of steps to reproduce the issue, starting from the point where you install Python, I'm not sure what else we can do to help (but I will reiterate - this is *not* a problem with the Python install itself - we don't ship a site-packages/backports directory, that came with something you installed via pip).
