3.6.2 is latest stable release right? And "path length" - Fran_3 - Jul-31-2017

1 - Just confirming 3.6.2 is latest stable release... right? (for Windows 10 install)

2 - At end of install it asked me for OK to exceed normal 2xx character path length... I didn't click it. How to get the option back?

3 - I let Python install deeply in C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\Programs\Python

3a - Is path link an issue because I let Python install so far down in the path as above?

3b - If I uninstall and reinstall at c:\Python will path link be an issue... assuming I don't bury stuff way down a path?

Thanks for any help.

I have a tutorial that should answer these question Python 3.6 and pip installation under Windows.
Part-2 can also look at.

  1. datetime.date.today()... yes
  2. https://docs.python.org/3/using/windows.html#removing-the-max-path-limitation
  3. I am not sure about this.
