Several people have asked on python-list why they are running into these errors.

Python 3.6.0 can't start because api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll is missing. 

The solution is to install KB 2999226 "Update for Universal C Runtime in Windows". 
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2999226/update-for-universal-c-runtime-in-windows

Propose to add this as a Windows FAQ.
