Hi Benjamin, > The file info is seems correct but I just checked the MSI and it's reporting that it's 2.7.2. How exactly are you running python.exe and IDLE- are you calling the full path, just calling "python" and using whichever python version is first on your path, or are you using an entry in the start menu? The only thing I can think of is that your 2.7.0 install is in a different location than your 2.7.2 install. So 2.7.2 installed correctly but you're still running the old one.
Within the folder where the python.exe exists, I have tried the following, all of which report Python 2.7.0 vs. 2.7.2 python python.exe c:\python27 Confirming I'm running what I think I'm running: >>> import sys >>> sys.hexversion 34013424 >>> sys.executable 'C:\\Python27\\python.exe' >>> And confirming the exe files in my Python27 folder: Directory of C:\Python27 06/12/2011 03:09 PM 26,624 python.exe 06/12/2011 03:06 PM 27,136 pythonw.exe Anyone else having the same experience?
