[New-bugs-announce] [issue28947] Facing issue while running Python 3.6.0rc1 windows x86-64 web based installer

New submission from arpit arora:

Hi,

Post installing 'Python 3.6.0rc1 windows x86-64 web based installer' on my Windows 7 64 bit system, i am not able to start python. Each time i start it, i get a pop up saying that "the program can't start because 'api-ms-win-crt-runtime-|1-1-0.dll' is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling this program to fix this problem."
I have reinstalled Python but still i get the same error message while starting it. I am stuck here. Please help me with this. Thanks in advance.

Regards
Arpit Arora
