Hi everybody,
I've got a problem with the installation of Python. I am a translator and
currently I'm translating a book on programming Minecraft with Python, from
English to Dutch.
My computer is a Windows 10 computer, 64-bits (Toshiba Qosmio all in one).
I already had a 2.7 version of Python installed to C:\Program Files
(x86)\Python and stupidly forgot to uninstall this version when I downloaded
and installed version 3.5.1 (required for the book translation).
This didn't seem to be a problem, since version 3.5.1 installed to my
C:\Users\username\appdata\local\... directory. But when I tried to install
Python 3.5.2 and uninstalled both previous versions, the problems began.
Now I cannot install any version of Python anymore, not 3.5.0 or any later
versions. At the end of the procedure I get a fatal error message, with code
0x80070643, saying an error was encountered and the installation couldn't be
completed.
What do I do now? I desperately need my Python program for my book
translation.
Thanks, Irene
Kind regards,
Irene Venditti
