Seems like --user-access-control=auto option [1] introduced in Python 2.6 for to bdist_wininst has no effect on Vista.

Test.

  1. Get a Vista.
  2. hg clone http://bitbucket.org/techtonik/python-wget/
  3. Add
    {{{
    scripts=['wget.py'],
    }}}
    to setup.py
  4. python setup.py bdist_wininst --user-access-control=auto
  5. Execute wget-0.6.win32.exe
  6. Watch the error
    {{{
    Access is denied.
    CreateFile (C:\Python27\Scripts\wget.py)
    }}}
  7. Python is always installed for "All users" on Vista
