When trying to install Python 3.6 using the "python-3.6.0-amd64.exe" installer on Windows 2012 R2 I encounter a failure.  

I'm flagging the options in the installer for:
Customize Installation
Add Python 3.6 to PATH
Leaving all Optional Features selected 
Under Advanced Options I'm checking "Install for all users" and letting Python's installer select "Precompile standard library".  
This is what the installer outputs when it fails: http://pastebin.com/XUzVJ1Y5

I've tried to download KB2999226 & KB3118401 manually but they say they aren't for my version of Windows.  I believe that the Python installer is detecting my version of Windows is 8.1 and isn't installing because of the Windows dependencies also fail since they are for version 8.1 (or at least appear to be).
