Windows 10: Cannot install Python

I'm trying to install Python 2.7.15.

I've downloaded the Windows x86 MSI installer, but when I try to open it so I can install Python, I get a message saying "You'll need a new app to open this .msi file". Every tutorial I've found has said that the Python installer should open with the windows installer automatically when you double click. I'm sorry if I'm missing something obvious.

Made a Mistake with Python


I had to install Python some time ago. I think it so I could use VeraCrypt. I do not remember which version of Python I installed or if it showed up in the app list in Settings.

Yesterday, I decided to install DeDRM removal tools. One of them required Phyton and I installed Python 3.5.4.3504. It shows up in the app list in Settings.\

I then figured out I didn't need Python because I was not going to use the standalone DeDRM removal app but just the DeDRM removcal plugin. So I proceeded to uninstall Python 3.5.4.3504.

I then remembered about the earlier Python install and was wondering if the new Python installation had maybe overwritten the earlier one. Since I need Python for Veracrypt to work, I decided to cancel uninstalling. For the last half hour, I have been looking at at the Python popup saying "canceling" and the cursor showing an hourglass.


1. Is it likely that Python 3.5.4.3504 replaced the previously installed Python ?

2. Was it a mistake to cancel uninstalling? If yes, what should I have done?

EDIT: I restarted and Python 3.5.4.3504 is still installed. VeraCrypt works. I still would like to know why after I canceled uninstalling, the canceling process would not stop.

 

How to install Python

Hi,



I just tried to install some kind of Memory game called "SweetMemories", but upon starting it prompted me to make sure the "Python Runtime PIPS Library" was installed. So I searched online for that term and installed the latest version - "Python 1.4.5" or
something, the correct version for my S60 3rd phone. However, when I tried to install that, I got the message that "Installation of Python 1.4.5 is not supported".

Any ideas on that one? Some kind of braintrainer like this would be an extremely cool thing to have on a mobile, but it seems that getting it is a braintraining exercise of its own ;-)

Regards,
