Steps to repeate (windows 10)

msiexec.exe /i python-2.7.15.amd64.msi TARGET_DIR=C:/Users/Public/python /qr

(fresh install works without issue)

rm -r C:/Users/Public/python

msiexec.exe /i python-2.7.15.amd64.msi TARGET_DIR=C:/Users/Public/python /qr

(Scripts folder and all site-packages are not copied ie. no Pip or easy_install)
