According to the info you give, I have done the following steps: 1. Upgrade to SP2 first. 2. Install the CRT update. But the result is still the same, nothing happens after double click the file python-3.6.1.exe. I deeply appreciate your help. It looks like that Vista has to live with Python 3.4 for its rest of life:-) --Jach -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
