I am VERY tech saavy, so don't give me an auto reply like I'm stupid (it's happened before). Sorry for the rude start! Anyhoo, This is the only program on my pc that does this, tried registry fixes, ms fixit, cmd, services, you named it I've (most likely) done it! |

I think it would be helpful for you to email the python-list mailing list. Hopefully the people there can help you refine your problem report into something we can tackle. The installer works fine for most people, so the first thing that we need in order to fix any such bug is to figure out how to reproduce it on some machine other than your own. One of our windows devs might have some questions based on your minimal current description, but you are likely to get faster help from python-list, where there are a lot more people who use windows regularly than there are on the core team. Please report any new information you discover here. |

Sorry, I meant to delete that word 'minimal', since you have told us what you currently know, but I hit send before I did :) |

If you were upgrading an existing install, try cleanly removing it from Control Panel / Programs and Features (Win 7). To do that, you may have to first fix the existing installation and that will require the installer used to install it. |

Payden Comer, please run msiexec /i <msifilename> /l*v python.log in a terminal window, and attach the resulting python.log here. R. David: Feel free to copy these instructions; they can be standard in all cases of "the installer does not work". As for the actual report: The first issue (python bug.PNG) has a clear explanation: Windows installer does not support simultaneous installation of two MSI files. So while ffmpeg (or whatever the scratched-out name is) is being installed, it refuses to start the Python installation. As for the second problem: Other software authors have put texts on the net on potential causes for this problem. I think going through http://support.affixa.com/kb/236 could be helpful. |

Closing because of lack of feedback. |
