MS Visual Studio 2015 and Python 3.7
#1
I am having difficulty with more recent Python 3.7 interpreters and MS Visual Studio 2015 Pro. When I configure I try and configure the interpreter in the Python Environments window, the IntelliSense configuration 'hangs' and cannot complete. When I use the older Python 2.7, the IntelliSense completes. In fact when I install Python 3.7, Visual Studio does not automatically recognize the interpreter, I have to build a 'Custom' interpreter. Support for Python at MSDN is mediocre, so I posted here. If anyone is familiar with Python and Visual Studio 2015 Pro, any help would be appreciated.

You should drop Visual Studio 2015 and use VS Code.
My tutorial here VS Code from start.
In this post talk about difference.

I'd prefer to use Visual Studio if possible. I seem to remember something about new Python installations installing various features in earlier version Python directories. When I last installed Python 3.7 (today) it only installed the Lib directory to the Python37 directory. I'm thinking it must be my settings in the Python Environments window. They seem correct but possible I need to redirect one of the directories to an earlier version of Python installation?

Look at Python 3.6/3.7 and pip installation under Windows.
If need to fix Path.

The support may be laking in Visual Studio 2015 Pro,they have gone all in on supporting VS Code.
VS Code Goes All In on Python.
Just so you know so do IntelliSense work better for Python in VS Code.
