Question about 0x80070642 - User cancelled installation
#1
Hello,

I am new to Python and trying to install the software onto my Windows 11 computer, but I keep getting stuck halfway and end up with the "0x80070642 - User canceled installation" failure message. I know that people have stated to make sure the "Add python.exe to PATH" and that if someone is experiencing the error mentioned above, to check the "Use admin privileges when installing py.exe" tab. I have tried both and the progress still stops just after the "Python 3.12.6 Executables (64-bit) stage completes.

Does anyone have any input on where to check next?

Thank you for any information on this issue.

Maybe this here is a workaround, but not a fix: https://stackoverflow.com/a/46936208/2817354
