[New-bugs-announce] [issue25119] Windows installer fails to install VCRUNTIME140.DLL

[Marius Gedminas]

New submission from Marius Gedminas:

1. Install Python 3.5 using the official Windows installer
2. Get a shell
3. python -m ensurepip (because the installer didn't install pip for me -- is that another bug?  I thought the installer was supposed to run ensurepip for me?  Is it fallout from bug 25117?)
4. python -m pip install virtualenv (gets me version 13.1.2)
5. python -m virtualenv env

I expect: a virtualenv in ./env

I get: a GUI error dialog saying "The program can't start because VCRUNTIME140.dll is missing from your computer."
