bugs.python.org has several mentioned of this, the one I looked at seems to conclude it's a problem with an environment variable (PYTHONHOME). Take a look here and see if anything from this helps, if not, search for other issues with the same problem... https://bugs.python.org/issue27054 Despite some of the comments, it should *not* be necessary to install with elevated privilege ("as administrator"), the installer is designed not to need that unless you want to install "system wide", which is usually not necessary on a personal computer. This list would not be the preferred location to follow up... maybe the main Python list? _______________________________________________ pydotorg-www mailing list pydotorg-www@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pydotorg-www
