I've installed 3.5 for all users so it's in C:\Program Files

From
https://docs.python.org/3.5/using/windows.html#from-the-command-line it
says "System-wide installations of Python 3.3 and later will put the
launcher on your PATH. The launcher is compatible with all available
versions of Python, so it does not matter which version is installed. To
check that the launcher is available, execute the following command in
Command Prompt:", but:-

C:\Users\Mark\Documents\MyPython>py -3.4
'py' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Further running ftype shows nothing for Python, assoc just gives this
.pyproj=VisualStudio.Launcher.pyproj.14.0.  Surely this is wrong?

Before I go to the bug tracker to raise an issue could somebody please
confirm what I'm seeing, thanks.


Well I've just installed 64-bit 3.5.0rc4 via the web installer (ie this:
https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.5.0/python-3.5.0rc4-amd64-webinstall.exe)

onto a machine with 64-bit 3.4.2 already installed. I went for the
default install.

It all seems to be ok and py -3.4 --version gives  me "Python 3.4.2" as
expected. assoc/ftype both look ok. c:\windows\py.exe has the versions &
dates I expect.

So I ran the 64-bit 3.5.0rc4 via the web installer and still no joy. Ran
repair with same and it's business as usual.  I'm not that bothered,
it's here for the record should anybody else come searching, so chalk it
up to experience and move on.  Thanks anyway :)


Exactly the same thing happened when I upgraded to 3.5.0. so raised http://bugs.python.org/issue25089 just in case it hurts other people more than it hurts me.
