New submission from Wojtek Swiatek:

When installing Python 3.5 on Windows (I checked the 64bits installer but I 
believe the same issue will be with the 32bits), the default installation path 
when installing for "everyone" is now C:\ Program Files\Python35.

When subsequently installing packages via pip, the installation crashes midway 
with a cryptic error about "permission denied" (if I remember correctly). I 
checked with the cryptography module.

It is not an issue with access rights but with the whitespace in "Program 
Files". Reinstalling Python to C:\Python35 fixes the issue (pip install 
cryptography runs correctly).
