Hello,
Please forgive a new user's ignorance.
I am trying to install Python 3.5.0 on my laptop (Windows 10). The
default installation directory is shown as c:\Users\(my user
name)\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32. However, if I select
Custom Install then the default installation directory is c:\Program
Files(x86)\Python3.5.
In either case, after the installation is complete I cannot find a
Python3.5 directory under Program Files(x86) or the Users\... directory.
OP reports off-list that the installation now appears to have been
successful. (I'm not clear whether as the result of a re-install or
simply finding the .exe)

Well, his Python shouldn't have been scattered all over his filesystem
in any case. Did it all show up in one place like it was supposed to?

I have a very strong feeling that Steve Dower has *NOT* incorporated
some kind of random number generator into the Python 3.5 installer such
that weird versions of everything get scattered over a hard drive like
confetti at a wedding. If he had of done so I might well have had a
word. The old lags know what I'm like, but for the benefit of the new
lags, when I'm having a bad hair day, having got out of bed on the wrong
side, it most certainly would *NOT* have been quiet. Please also be
aware that my bark is roughly one trillion times worse than my bite.

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
