Chris Wood added the comment: Ah, in that case:
- I guess the issue would have been that the python 3.5 installation I tried (which was 3.5.0a1) had the vcruntime140.dll issue - I've realised that the 3.5* installation puts Python on the beginning of the PATH - whereas I was putting the 2.7 directory at the end of the PATH (so when I was testing 2.7 my PATH variable was being ignored by the 3.5 one. - I assume that the missing vcruntime140.dll was a known bug in 3.5.0a1 and was fixed in a subsequent release I should have probably realised all of this earlier! ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27836> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
