[issue39263] Windows Installer can't select TargetDir in UI?

2020-01-08 Thread Jameson Nash


New submission from Jameson Nash :

When running the installer on Windows, I wanted to put Python in an easily 
accessible path (C:\Python38 in my case), however, the GUI didn't seem to 
provide any way to change the path (from AppData). And additionally, the 
"install for all users" checkbox seemed to be broken (didn't respond to mouse 
events and remained checked). Running the installer with the argument 
TargetDir=C:\Python38 worked, but I wouldn't have expected to need to hack my 
way to just picking the install directory.

Yes, I thought it was confusing that button is labeled "choose location and 
features", but it only let me change a few features and not location.
