[issue26183] 2.7.11 won't clean install on Windows 10 x64

2016-01-22 Thread Roger Cook

New submission from Roger Cook:

The Windows installer stops the installation and backs out on a clean system. 
Here is the relevant section of the log file (msiexec /i 
python-2.7.11.amd64.msi /l*v):

--- end log ---

It appears that the installer tries to call the Python executable before it has 
been put in place. This fails, and the installer backs out.

Workaround: Install 2.7.10, then install 2.7.11 over it.

Roger Cook added the comment:

Installing a VM and running it there, it installs.

Is there a manual removal procedure to follow when the automated uninstall 
fails?
