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

could be helpful.
