Python 3.6 Installed, But Doesn't Exist
#1
Using Windows 7. Installed Python 3.6, and it won't go. 
I'm trying to change the "Path" file thing in Windows, but I only seem to have the "Python35-32" folder. There is no folder on my machine that says "Python36" or anything like that. When I go into the only Python folder on my machine (Python35-32) and double-click "python.exe", Python 3.5.2 opens.
If I click search my machine for "Python 3.6", I do get a few items. "Python 3.6" and "IDLE Python 3.6" do nothing when I click them, but "Python 3.6 (32-bit)" does open what looks like a command-line-looking shell that seems to work and run Python 3.6. But other than this, I can't see that it's installed, and I can't see a path to use for changing my Windows "path" variable. 
When I try to reinstall it, it gives the option to "repair" or "uninstall", so it seems like it IS installed.
Super confused. Very new to all of this, so any help you can provide will be much appreciated.
