That's good news. As far as I can see, there isn't anything Python's installer
can do if the CRT update fails for reasons beyond our control, so I'm closing
this as a 3rd party issue. Thank you for the report.

New submission from Lane Campbell:
When trying to install Python 3.6 using the "python-3.6.0-amd64.exe" installer
on Windows 2012 R2 I encounter a failure.
I'm flagging the options in the installer for:
Customize Installation
Add Python 3.6 to PATH
Leaving all Optional Features selected
