Windows – Python Won’t Install On Windows 7

64-bitinstallationpythonwindows 7

I'm trying to install Python on my Windows 7 (64-bit) – AMD Sempron Machine. I downloaded the 3.1.2 Windows X86-64 installer. After running it and selecting the option to install it for all users, the installer window disappears. Eventually I get a dialog box error back that says "Installer is no longer responding".

I've also tried the x86 version and the 2.7 amd64.msi. Any reason why I'm getting this error?

Did you try to install by right clicking on the installer and selecting "Run as Administrator"?? Even if you disable User Account Control, you still have to run some installers "As Administrator".
