I have installed Python on two Win10 computers over the last 20 years.
Only after several spits and starts each time did it finally work. The

easier way to get it installed than my previous efforts.
Is there a simple PHD (Push Here Dummy) version available for this
new, clean machine?
I went to Python.org and struggled with the small pale-blue-on-white
font. (Why do they do that?) but had no luck.
There is no reason to "struggle" with small font sizes. Just enlarge
the page with CTRL-+ a few times and the size will be fine. On my
system, the python.org page comes up at a good size be default. Once
the size is all right, the white-on-blue should be reasonably readable.
You want to download the Windows 64-bit installer.
Guidance appreciated.

The Microsoft Store installation is the simplest *graphical* install -
find it, and click the button.
From a command line shell, installation is also simple:
winget install python.
there are plenty of nuances beyond that but I guess that would be
outside the spirit of your question? You can always ask again if you
want those details...
