Paul Moore added the comment: To be clear, Steve *is* our main Windows developer, and specifically the person who developed the Windows installers we now use. They work perfectly for many people, including myself, so there certainly isn't a general issue with them. I myself routinely install Python with the new installers on Windows 7 x64 systems, so it's definitely something specific to your system.
Is your PC running a "corporate" build that might include security restrictions or other permission limitations that might be affecting the behaviour of the installer? As a workaround, Python is installable using nuget, from https://www.nuget.org/packages/python. I don't know much myself about nuget, but basically "nuget install python" will create a local copy of Python in the current directory that you can use without needing to be installed. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue31148> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
