I am unable to install Python 3.4.2 amd64 on Windows as the installer exits with an error stating that it cannot run a required program. |

Can you copy the exact error that you got? Have you tried redownloading it, and/or checking with a different version (x86 or Python 3.3)? Do you have admin privileges on your account? |

It turns out that Windows Installer failed to remove the Python 3.4.1 installer entry from the registry when I uninstalled that version previously. Deleting the entry fixed the install. Basically, Windows borked it. |

I've just come across the same problem. I uninstalled Python 3.4.1 amd64. There were other things installed in that version, so some stuff remained. I then tried to install Python 3.4.2 amd64, but it failed (same problem as Zac). I ran the Python 3.4.1 amd64 installer to repair it and then the Python 3.4.2 amd64 installer again. It worked. This is on Windows 8.1 Update 1, 64-bit. |

@Terry: Just to clarify, I didn't have a problem installing over Python 3.4.1, only with uninstalling Python 3.4.1 (with other stuff installed there) and then installing Python 3.4.2. |

This was marked as 'fixed' almost two years ago. I tried to install 3.4.3, uninstall 3.4.3 and install 3.4.4 again in Win 10 and it worked fine for me. I guess this was left open accidentally. |
