Hi Steve, Of course there are various reasons for having multiple Python versions on a developer workstation but I would assume that the majority of Windows installer users simple want to run Python projects, at least this holds true for the majority of Python on Windows users in my org. > if you'd really like this to be in the installer, feel free to go for it. could you point me to the relevant files and lines for the PrependPath CLI option and implementation logic on Github? Not sure if I got it right, but I assume the following file is in charge of modifying the env:path: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Tools/msi/path/path.wxs Since I have never worked within the MSI framework, I could not figure out how the "call flow" from enabling the definition of the PrependPath in https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Tools/msi/bundle/bundle.wxs to actually modifying the path Regarging path.wxs: Would you prefer that I add a pathappend/pathappend.wxs or should I simply add a new Component ID like so: <Component Id="AppendPath_LM" Directory="InstallDirectory" Guid="*"> <Condition>ALLUSERS=1</Condition> ... Or would I introduce a new condition ALLUSERS_APPEND or something? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44934> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
