I had the same problem. I have conda, so I used it and it worked like a charm!

$conda install selenium

Instead of typing in pip install silenium I just entered: "pip.exe install selenium" and this worked for me

This worked for me:

1. Deactivate proxy Settings in Internet Explorer
2. Run pycharm in Windows 10 as Administrator
3. Then Upgrade pip with: pip install --upgrade pip
4. Install Selenium with: pip3 install selenium
