Windows 7 Ultimate: SP1.  Fully pathed as of July 4th, 2017

My Windows 7 install has multiple user accounts.  The main install account is set up with "Administrator" privledges.

Some point in the past I had installed Python 3.6.1 on the main account.  Did not install for all users.  That put the python files inside the %appdata% folder.

I was then trying to go through the Python Minecraft book with my daughter.  We had logged in as my daughters login and tried to install Python 3.6.1 for her.  Got an error stating Python was already installed, even though she couldn't access it for her Windows login.

Ultimately, had to uninstall Python 3.6, and reinstall for "All users".  

Would think that multiple users could install Python in their own folder regardless of versions that other people have installed.
