Sent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE Device Hello, I am using an HP PC, brought in 2009, which currently has on it Windows 7 Ultimate, Service Pack 1.
The processor is an AMD Turion 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-62 2.10 GHz. Installed memory is 4.00 GB (3.75 GB usable) System type is 64-bit operating system. I went to https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/ and chose the following: Download Windows x86-64 executable installerThe downloaded file appeared, in my Downloads folder, as: python-3.6.1-amd64.exe, with a filesize of 30,657 KB. I ran the file and it appeared to install properly. But when I tried to run Python from the Windows All Programs menu tab, I got the following message, in a small window by the window with a black screen: ------------------------------------------ python.exe - System Error The program can't start because api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.------------------------------------------ I tried the following: (a) restarting Windows and trying again: same result; (a) running the installer file again and selecting repair: this stalled for a long time so I had to abort it; (b) restarting my computer, running the installer file again and selecting uninstall: this uninstalled Python, so it said; (c) running the installer file again and choosing install: this installed Python afresh. But then I had the same problem as at the start when I tried to run Python. Please advise. Thanks Arjun Janah < arjun.ja...@gmail.com > -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
