New submission from J. Morton <mortonj at navcanada.ca>:

Got a 0x8070666 "Setup Failed - another version installed" popup message when installing 3.6.3 with 3.6.4 and 3.5.1 already installed (all are "just for me" installs). The problem is independent of word length.
It should be possible to install any/every earlier version (within reason) provided the earlier version is "virtualized" by being placed in it's own folder (which I was what I was doing). 
Please accomodate this capability as it is often needed to support users using earlier versions of Python. 

Environment: 64 bit Win7 Enterprise SP1 on a IM controlled machine. Possible red herring: IM recently upgraded java on this machine to "1.8.0_151".  32 and 64 bit versions of all releases are installed on this machine.
