New submission from Cody Piersall: Whenever I tried to run the embeddable zip file from https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/ for Python 3.5.0b3, the program crashes with the message
> The program can't start because api-ms-win-crt-math-l1-1-0.dll is missing > from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem. I suspect that this happens because I don't have any version of Visual Studio on my computer, but I'm not sure what causes it. It happens with both the 32-bit and 64-bit zip file. Steps to reproduce: 1. Download the zip file https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.5.0/python-3.5.0b3-embed-win32.zip 2. Extract the contents 3. Click on the Python executable 4. Do not have Visual Studio installed on your computer I am running Windows 7 Enterprise, 64-bit I have attached a screenshot of the error message. ---------- files: bug.PNG messages: 247063 nosy: Cody Piersall, steve.dower priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Windows embeddable Python zip file crashes (cannot find a dll) Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file39969/bug.PNG _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24679> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
