1. Download from https://python.org (not Microsoft) and always choose
the 64-bit stable version
2. Choose the installation location as C:\Python311 (avoid the default)
4. Accept other recommended installation options especially to include
Python on the path (if offered)
Guaranteed to work. Also, you will never have to uninstall. Install the
next version in C:\Python312 etc
In due course, investigate virtual environments so you can work on
projects simultaneously using different versions of Python or different
versions of various Python libraries.
Good luck
Mike
