New submission from Debarshi Goswami:

Python installer (msi) having problem in installing Python for all users in 
Windows. It gets installed for installing user only. 

I was able to log the python output and found the below in the log. 
MSI (s) (8C:D0) [07:13:00:212]: Determined that existing product (either this 
product or the product being upgraded with a patch) is installed per-user.

I tried the below command combinations  to install python per machine, but it 
seems this a default product behavior. It should be fixed.

1. msiexec /i %setup_loc% TARGETDIR="C:\apps\Python34" ADDLOCAL="ALL" 
ALLUSERS="1" MSIINSTALLPERUSER="" /qb

2. msiexec /i %setup_loc% TARGETDIR="C:\apps\Python34" ADDLOCAL="ALL" 
WHICHUSERS="ALL" /qb 
  
3. msiexec /a %setup_loc% /passive /norestart TARGETDIR="c:\apps\Python34" 
ADDLOCAL="ALL" ALLUSERS="1"


Setup_loc=python msi file location
ADDLOCAL="ALL" -  Install all the features of the product .
ALLUSERS="1" - ALLUSERS property value of 1 specifies the per-machine 
installation .
MSIINSTALLPERUSER="" - MSIINSTALLPERUSER property to an empty string ("") for a 
per-machine installation.

Please let me know if I am missing anything. It seems a bug to me.
