- Recently installed Windows 8.1 -Used 64 bit installer present on the python site
- Getting "The Program Can't Start Because Api-Ms-Win-Crt-Runtime-L1-1-0.Dll Is Missing"
- Have tried reinstalling Microsoft Visual Studio Re-dist 2015 multiple times
- Added PATH variable to the enviroment variables in control panel
Help will be greatly appreciated, Thank you.
You shouldn't have to install the .dll as Python includes it. That said, did you run the executable as Administrator? Did you select Install for all users or just yourself? Where did Python install itself?
I am running 3.6 on MS Windows 7 (Pro). Runs just fine.
Windows 8 is wierd, suggest upgrade to windows 7.

Choose a better path like
C:\python36.
Make sure that
add to Path and
pip is mark on.
Argh!
I couldn't get python to work.
So I uninstalled it and downloaded the ActiveStatePython 3.4 and used an IDE to work on a project I'm currently doing>
It is working okay now.
I guess the problem's with Windows8.1 and I'll try to get 7 on my PC when I can.
Anyway, thanks for the help.
