I tried to install 3.5.1 32-bit into a fresh virtualbox image from https://dev.windows.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/mac/ (IE 10 on Win 7), and got this same error message.  Python will not run, it only shows:

                    ---------------------------
                    python.exe - System Error
                    ---------------------------
                    The program can't start because api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem. 
                    ---------------------------
                    OK   
                    ---------------------------

I tried repairing the installation (with the control panel), which did not help.
